# Verifying the Default Configurations - Storage Pool

After setting up the HyperScale 1.5 Appliance the Storage Pool is configured. The storage pool configuration can be viewed as follows:

## Procedure

1. From the navigation, click Storage > Storage Pools.

   The Storage Pool page appears.

2. From the Storage Pools page, click the name of the Storage Pool that you want to view.

   HyperScale storage pools are classified as Scale-Out in the Type column.

   Verify the Storage Pool configuration. The following information is displayed:

Device Path | The path of the disk storage area in which the data will be stored.
Total Capacity | The total storage capacity of the selected Storage Pool.
Free Space | The total free space available in the storage pool.
Total Application Size | The total amount of data that is backed up on the Storage Pool.
Size on Disk | The total amount of data stored on the disk after deduplication and compression.
Status | The status of the storage pool - whether the storage pool is online or offline.

In the Nodes area, click the name of the specific node. The following information is displayed:

Status | The status of the node - whether the node is online or offline and is healthy.
Disks |
Mount Path | The path where the data is written to and read from.
Serial number | The serial number of the disk.
Vendor | The name of the vendor.
Product | The name of the product.
File system | The file system on the node.
Capacity | The total storage capacity of the selected node.
Disk I/O Test | The status of the disk I/O - success or failure.
S.M.A.R.T status (Self-Monitoring, Analysis and Reporting Technology) | The reliability status of the hard drive as reported by S.M.A.R.T. Applicable for HyperScale 1.5 Appliance and not applicable for HyperScale Reference Architecture.

In the Deduplication database area, the following information is displayed:

Deduplication database |
--- | ---
Deduplication savings | The savings percentage after deduplication.
Number of partitions | The number of partition(s) configured for the DDB (deduplication database).
Status | The status of the DDB.
Resiliency/Redundancy |
Configuration type | The configuration type that was specified when the Storage pool was added. See Adding a Storage pool for more information.
Number of nodes per block | The total number of nodes.
Disperse factor | Disperse factor is based on erasure codes, providing space-efficient protection against disk or server failures.
Redundancy factor | The number of nodes which can be down without affecting the data protection operations. By default this is set to 2. This number is proportional to Nodes per Block.

In the Deduplication database area, click Details.... The following information is displayed:
