VTL Status
Quantum DXi4700 User’s Guide 174
The Partitions section displays the following information about VTL partitions:
Partition The name of the partition.
Number of Drives The number of virtual tape drives in the partition.
Capacity The storage capacity of the partition.
Used The amount of space on all cartridges in the partition currently used to store data. The
value for Used might be less than the original, native (raw) data size because the data
is compressed before it is written to the media.
Used Percent The amount of currently used space on all cartridges in the partition expressed as a
percentage of the total capacity
( [ Used / Capacity ] x 100 ).
Note: Click the Information button [i] next to a partition to display detailed information about the
partition.
