Set the threshold of a disk pool

You can eliminate recovery problems that occur when a disk pool overflows by setting a disk pool threshold. When the data stored in the disk pool exceeds the specified threshold, the server sends a message, allowing you time to add more storage space or to delete unnecessary objects. The default threshold of a disk pool is set to 90%. You can change this value by dragging a pointer up or down the threshold scale.

To change the threshold of a disk pool, follow these steps:
  1. Expand Disk Pools.
  2. Right-click the disk pool for which you want to change the threshold and select Properties.
  3. From the Threshold tab, increase or decrease the threshold for the disk pool.
