Setting volume usage

Last published : Jun 19, 2026
The Management Server console lets you set the volume usage to set the read policy for a volume. This operation is enabled only of the volume has mirrors on it.
To perform this task, your user group must be assigned the Admin role on the host or the Server perspective. The permission on the host may be explicitly assigned or inherited from a parent Organization.

  2. Expand the Organization or Uncategorized Hosts to locate the host.
  3. Expand the host and select Volumes.
  4. Right-click on the required volume and select Set Usage.
  5. In the Set Volume Usage wizard panel, confirm the volume you want to stop. Click OK.
See Set Volume Usage panel options.
