wafl.ca.cap.tier.usage.limit

Severity

ERROR

Description

This message occurs when the space used in the capacity tier of a FabricPool aggregate has exceeded or is projected to exceed the size limit set on the capacity tier.

Corrective Action

Perform one or more of the following actions: o Free space in the capacity tier of the aggregate by moving volumes, removing volumes, or deleting data. o Increase the size limit set on the capacity tier.

Syslog Message

Aggregate %s capacity tier usage (%llu MB) has exceeded its size limit (%llu MB).

Parameters

aggregate (STRING): Aggregate name.
capacityTierUsage (LONGINT): Current capacity tier usage in MB.
capacityTierSizeLimit (LONGINT): Capacity tier size limit in MB.
