NetScaler Application Delivery Management service

Manage data storage

NetScaler ADM allows you to view your data storage information. The Data Storage Management dashboard helps you visualize:

  • How the data is stored across the different features in your current deployment
  • If the features are operating within their storage entitlement

View data storage consumption

To view your current storage entitlement and the latest storage consumption in the deployment, navigate to Settings > Data Storage Management.

Data storage dashboard

The Data Storage Management dashboard consists of the following:

  • Entitled Storage – The storage available for your license (in GB).
  • Consumed Storage – The total storage used by all the features in the deployment (in GB or percent). The following color coding criteria reflect the amount of storage used by the features:

    • Green - The consumed storage is less than 75% of entitlement.

    • Amber - The consumption storage is between 75% to 99% of entitlement.

    • Red - The consumption storage limit has reached or is above the current entitlement storage.

  • Storage Consumption in MB – The visual representation of the data storage consumption across different features in a month. This information is displayed in either of the following forms:
    • Graphical View – Displays the data storage information in an area chart. Hover your mouse over the timeline to view the data storage information for any day of the month.

    Graphical view

    Note

    The Graphical View is the default view.

    • Tabular View – Click Tabular View to display the data storage information in a table form.

    Tabular view

  • Storage Consumption By Sources as on dd mmm - The storage space used by all the different features and the percentage of space they consume on a particular day.

Important

The data storage policies are expected to change in the upcoming releases. With these changes, you cannot store historical data after it exceeds the storage limit. For now, it’s recommended you add more storage or keep the storage within the licensed entitlement limits.
