CDP Data Center Console allows you to monitor parameters of Volumes on multiple CDP Servers at once. You can do so from the "Volumes" screen.
Follow the instructions below to access the "Volumes" screen.

You will enter the "Volumes" screen.
The "Volumes" List
The list of all Volumes is displayed. The following columns are shown:
- Status - The status of a Volume. See Using Data Center Console Dashboard for more information about the different Volume statuses.
- Name - The name of the Volume. Volume name is used to identify the Volume in the system.
- CDP Server - The name/IP of the CDP Server to which the current Volume belongs.
Note
The server name/IP is displayed in the form of a link. You can click the link for quick access to the CDP Server.
- Quota Type - The type of quota assigned to the Volume. If no quota is defined for the Volume, then the red icon is displayed. Quotas are set to limit the disk usage of the Volume. The limit is set for all Disk Safes in the Volume on the basis of space occupied by Disk Safes, size of deltas, or number of deltas.
Tip
You can define Disk Quotas in Configuration. See Configuring Server Options.
- Soft Quota - The value in bytes or in deltas. Soft Quota is a warning level that informs users that they are close to reaching their effective limit.
- Hard Quota - The value in bytes or in deltas. Hard Quota allows resources to be occupied by data. If the Hard Quota is reached, then the system forbids generation of new Recovery Points. The replication is interrupted and failed.
- On Disk Size - The value in bytes. Displays the disk space occupied by the Volume.
- Deltas - The value in bytes. Deltas are the data that has changed since the last backup run.
- Actions - This column contains the list of actions that can be performed over the Volume. See the description below.
