158 Implementing the IBM Storwize V5000 Gen2 with IBM Spectrum Virtualize V8.1
The panel lists all storage pools available in the system. If a storage pool has child pools, you
can toggle the sign to the left of the storage pool icon to either show or hide the child pools.
4.2.1 Creating storage pools
If you are installing a brand new IBM Storwize V5000 Gen2, no pools are created when you
first log in, so the system automatically suggests a pool creation, which leads directly to the
Create Pool panel. You can access the Pools panel in the future through the Pools menu, as
previously shown in Figure 4-19 on page 157.
To create a new storage pool, you can use one of the following alternatives:
򐂰 Navigate to Pools Pools and click Create, as shown in Figure 4-20.
Figure 4-20 Create button on Pools panel
򐂰 Navigate to Pools MDisks by Pools and click Create Pool, as shown in Figure 4-21.
