The Host VOB Storage node
displays information about disk space used by a VOB, and the Host
View Storage node displays information about disk space used by
a view.
The VOB Space History or View
Space History tab displays space use history as a graph. If the
VOB or view storage spans multiple disk partitions, there is a separate graph
for each partition. To view a graph for a different partition, click the partition
in the Select partition to view box.
The
colored bands of each chart represent subdirectories of the VOB or view storage
directory.
The VOB Space and View
Space tabs display current
data on space used by the VOB or view.
This display
uses previously generated data that has been cached on the VOB or view server
host. This data is usually generated by the Daily VOB Space or Daily View
Space scheduled job. If no data is available, you can use the ClearCase
scheduler to run the job on the VOB or view server host.
VOB space display
For
each partition, the VOB Space graph displays historical
trends in space used by the following parts of the VOB storage directory:
- VOB database, containing such information as types, instances
of types, configuration records, and event records.
- Source storage pools, containing the data for versions of
file elements.
- Derived object storage pools, containing derived objects
referenced by more than one view. The Derived
Objects node displays disk space used by shared DOs.
- Cleartext storage pools, containing cached versions of file
elements.
- Miscellaneous VOB storage space, including VOB administration
data.
The chart also shows space in the partition that is
in use but not used by this VOB and remaining free space in the partition.
View space display
For
each partition, the View Space graph displays historical
trends in space used by the following parts of the view storage directory:
- View database, containing such information as records of
checked-out versions and, for dynamic views, configuration records of unshared
derived objects.
- View-private storage (dynamic views only), containing view-private
files, checked-out files, and unshared derived objects.
- Miscellaneous view storage space, including view administration
data.
The chart also shows space in the partition that is
in use but not used by this view and remaining free space in the partition.
Note: For a snapshot view, the
View Space chart
displays only the space used by the view storage directory. It does not display
space used by the snapshot view directory, which contains copies of versions
and view-private files.
Display options
Click Options to
open a dialog box that allows you to change display options for the VOB or
view space displays.
- On the General tab, you can change
the colors used in the charts.
- On the Space History tab, you can
select which parts of the VOB or view storage directory to display in the space history chart.
You can also select Automatic scaling to force the
Y-axis of the display to a scale proportional to the space used by the largest
selected component. If you do not select Automatic scaling,
the Y-axis of the display is based on the total capacity of the selected partition
