Displaying Volume Properties in the VAST Web UI

The Volumes tab on the Element Store page can display the following columns for each volume configured on the cluster and each snapshot volume created by mapping a volume's snapshot to one or more block host(s).

Note

The Volumes and Hosts tabs appear only when there is at least one block-enabled view configured on the cluster.

Note

Not all columns are displayed by default. To adjust the selection of columns, click choose_columns_to_display.png.

ID

The VMS ID of the volume. Use this ID to reference the volume when running CLI commands.

Name

The name of the volume.

Tags

The tags assigned to the volume, if applicable.

Namespace ID

For mapped volumes, this is the namespace ID as used by hosts to search the volume within the subsystem. Each namespace ID is unique within the subsystem. If a volume snapshot is mapped to any host(s), a snapshot volume is created with its own namespace ID.  

NGUID

The NGUID used by block hosts to access the volume.

UUID

The UUID, used by hosts to search the volume in the subsystem.

Subsystem

The subsystem to which the volume belongs.

Size

The amount of capacity allocated to  the volume.

Snapshot ID

For snapshot volumes only, the ID of the snapshot that was mapped to create the volume.

Assigned Hosts

Block hosts that are mapped to the volume. The volume is available to these hosts.
