You can use the Storage Virtual Machines window to manage your storage virtual machines (SVMs) and display information about them.
You cannot manage (create, edit, delete, start, or stop) an SVM configured for disaster recovery (DR) by using System Manager. Also, you cannot view the storage objects associated with the SVM configured for disaster recovery in the application interface.
The SVM list displays the name of each SVM and the allowed protocols on it.
You can view only data SVMs by using System Manager.
Specifies that the SVM is a data-serving SVM.
Specifies that the SVM is configured for disaster recovery.
Specifies that the SVM is in the primary site of a MetroCluster configuration.
Specifies that the SVM is in the surviving site of a MetroCluster configuration.
The area below the SVM list displays detailed information, such as the type of volumes allowed, language, and Snapshot policy, about the selected SVM.
You can also configure the protocols that are allowed on this SVM. If you have not configured the protocols while creating the SVM, you can click the protocol link to configure the protocol.
You cannot configure protocols for an SVM configured for disaster recovery by using System Manager.
The color indicates the status of the protocol configuration:
Status | Description |
---|---|
Green | LIFs exist and the protocol is configured. You can click the link to view the configuration details.
Note: Configuration might be partially completed. However, service is running. You can create the LIFs and complete the configuration from the Network Interfaces window.
|
Yellow | Indicates one of the following:
|
Grey | The protocol is not configured. You can click the protocol link to configure the protocol. |
Grey border | The protocol license has expired or is missing. You can click the protocol link to add the licenses in the Licenses page. |
Displays a list of the SVMs that are peered with the selected SVM along with details of the applications that are using the peer relationship.
