There are at least four tabs available on the system details page for PowerProtect DD: Health, Inventory, Capacity, and Performance. The Cybersecurity tab is available for those PPDD systems that have cybersecurity collections enabled in DD System Manager. The “Launch DD System Manager” hyperlink is available on each tab to allow users to quickly go to the element manager in circumstances where additional detailed information is needed. The details available in each tab are presented below.

PowerProtect DD system details – Health

All five categories are supported for determining the health score of each DD system. As with all other systems, each issue has a recommended resolution and the health score history is available at the bottom of the page.

PowerProtect DD system details – Inventory

The top portion of the Inventory tab provides various attributes including the serial number, model, site, location, version, and contract information. The bottom of the page contains the following tabs: Services, Replication, MTrees, and Disks. Each tab is discussed below.

Services

The Services tab provides a listing of the various services running on the system along with their status.

Replication

The Replication tab provides a listing and status of the replication sessions on the system. This information includes the source and destination, the state, the time of the last sync, and amount of remaining data to replicate from the source to the destination.

MTrees

The MTrees tab lists each of the configured MTrees, Storage Units, Virtual Tape Library (VTL) Pools, and so on, with the logical used, physical used, and compression factor for the last 24 hours.

Disks

The final tab is the Disks tab. Each disk is listed with its slot, model, firmware, serial number, capacity, and type.

PowerProtect DD system details – Capacity

The top of the Capacity tab displays the Capacity Forecast chart with the historical available and used capacity and the predicted used capacity with the confidence range.

The bottom of the page breaks down the physical and logical capacity on the DD system. The left side of this view displays horizontal bar charts for Active Tier and Cloud Tier Capacity. A third chart shows the total of active and cloud tier capacity. Each chart provides the total, used and free capacity. The amount of cleanable storage is also displayed as well as the reduction percentage and compression factor.

The right half of this view provides a doughnut chart of total logical storage broken down between local and cloud. This page allows users to gain insight into the capacity utilization on the system and savings due to reduction and compression.

PowerProtect DD system details – Performance

The Performance tab provides 24-hour performance charts for the following metrics:

• Pre-compressed Write Throughput
• Pre-compressed Read Throughput
• Incoming Pre-compressed Replication
• Outgoing Pre-compressed Replication
• CPU Usage
• Replication Streams Count (incoming and outgoing)
• Streams Count (reads and writes)

An example of the first few charts is shown below.

PowerProtect DD system details – Cybersecurity

The Cybersecurity tab provides the cybersecurity risk level for the PPDD system. When a cybersecurity issue is identified, the recommended remediation is provided for each issue. The Evaluation Plan tab lists out the status of each of the possible configuration tests.
