Working with extended storage components

HCP uses extended storage components to provide you with an interface to:

Configure HCP to provide the information that HCP needs to use to access specific extended storage devices and cloud storage service endpoints.

Configure HCP to monitor, manage, and use all of the extended storage that’s accessed using one or more extended storage components of the same type as a single storage pool.

Monitor the health, availability, capacity, and usage of the extended storage that’s represented by each component, and appropriately provision storage.

Pause (suspend), retire, or abandon extended storage that’s represented by a single storage component or retire all of the extended storage that’s represented by the components in a single storage pool.

You can use the Storage page in the System Management Console to perform all of the above tasks.

To display the Storage page, in the System Management Console menu, click on Storage.

Roles: To view the Storage page, you need the monitor or administrator role. To create, modify, or delete extended storage components and extended storage pools, you need the administrator role.
