Description Field for Volumes with cDOT

renem — Thu, 05 Jun 2025 06:04:28 GMT

Hi all,

For many customers the volume description field or comment field for volumes is very important with cDOT. I can see the description for the LUN's, but not for the volume.

Is there any possible to display the description filed in the volume overview section, like in the LUN section ?

Thanks in advice

Rene

HI,

AFAIK, vol description is not shown in the overview section of system manager unlike the LUN section.
