Table 4.264 aps_v_ibm_disk
Column Name
Data Type
Description
arsite_id
STRING
Array site ID
da_pair
STRING
Device adapter pair ID that is associated with the specified device adapter
disk_capacity_gb
NUMBER
DDM raw capacity in GiB
disk_capacity_kb
NUMBER
DDM raw capacity in KiB
disk_class
STRING
Disk class is either high speed fibre-channel disk drives or near-line disk drives.
The displayed value is one of the following:
ENT - Specifies enterprise and represents high speed fibre-channel disk drives
NL - Specifies near-line and represents ATA (FATA) disk drives
disk_id
STRING
System-assigned unique identifier for the DDM
disk_interface_rate
NUMBER
DDM interface rate
disk_interface_type
STRING
DDM interface type. One of the following values are displayed: FC-AL, FC-NL
disk_rpm
NUMBER
DDM rpm
disk_usage
STRING
DDM usage in an array site. One of the following values are displayed:
unassigned, unconfigured, spare required,
spare not required, array member
dual_loop
NUMBER
Dual loop that the specified DDM resides on. The value is either 1 or 2
firmware_level
STRING
Level of firmware that is installed on the specified DDM
ibm_array_site_id
NUMBER
Foreign key to array site details
ibm_device_adapter_id
NUMBER
Foreign key to device adapter details

NUMBER
Foreign key to physical disk details
ibm_storage_system_id
NUMBER
Foreign key to IBM storage system details
last_updated
DATE
last updated date
location
STRING
Storage enclosure and the DDM location. The DDM location format is Pn-Dn, where Pn is the Planer number (1), and Dn is the DDM number (1 - 16)
model
STRING
DDM model. The model name is a string of the form VRFCGGG, where VRFC is the type of disk family and GGG is the disk capacity in GB.
position
NUMBER
DDM position in an array site configuration of DDMs
state
STRING
Current DDM state.
One of the following values are displayed:
Normal - The storage device is operational and functional in its current disk usage.
New Indicates the initial state when a DDM is inserted or first discovered.
Installing A new storage device has been identified.
Verifying - The storage device is made accessible to the device adapter, its characteristics are determined, cabling is checked, and diagnostics are run.
Formatting - A verified storage device requires low-level formatting and the formatting operation is in progress.
Initializing The storage device is being initialized with all zero sectors.
Certifying -The storage device is read-accessed to determine that all sectors can be read.
Rebuilding - The storage device is being rebuilt with data from the array that it is associated with.
Migration - Target DDM migration is migrating another array member storage device to this spare storage device.
Migration Source DDM migration is migrating this array member storage device to another spare storage device.
Failed - The storage device has failed and an immediate repair action is required.
Failed - Deferred Service - The storage device has failed and a repair action is not immediately required.
Removed - The storage device is removed from the system and removal has been processed by the system.
Inappropriate -The storage device is incompatible with the system; for example, a storage device that has the wrong capacity or rpm. The DDM is not failed, because it can be valid for other systems and locations.
Inter failed - Indicates that the DDM is faulty but still working.
PFSed - Indicates that the DDM is prepared for service, and ready to be removed without impacting the system
system_name
STRING
name assigned to the storage unit
