Field descriptions

Number of Extents Pending Update: Specifies the number of data extent references that are pending an update in the directory-container storage pool. Data that is stored in the directory-container storage pool increases the number of references and data deletion decreases the number of references.
Number of Extents Not Referenced: Specifies the number of data extents that are not referenced in the directory-container storage pool. You can delete the data extents if they are not referenced again within the reuse delay period that is specified on the DEFINE STGPOOL command.
Number of Extents Eligible for Deletion: Specifies the number of data extents that can be deleted from the storage pool. The data extents exceed the reuse delay period that is specified on the DEFINE STGPOOL command.
Extent Reuse Delay (Days): Specifies the reuse delay time, in days, for data extents.
