Setting the Remaining Rated Write Endurance Threshold

The Set Remaining Rated Write Endurance Threshold is supported on PCIe and SAS/SATA SSDs. The Set Remaining Rated Write Endurance Threshold options provides added feature functionality in managing the threshold level for only PCIe SSDs, or SAS/SATA SSDs, or both based on your system configuration.
  • NOTE: This operation is not supported for SSDs connected to Software RAID controllers.

To set the Remaining Rated Write Endurance Threshold:

  1. In the Server Administrator window, under the System tree, select the Storage tree object. The storage Properties window is displayed.
  2. Click the Information/Configuration subtab to display more information.
  3. Under Global Tasks, select Set Remaining Rated Write Endurance Threshold from the drop-down menu.
    • NOTE: You can also click the Set Remaining Rated Writer Endurance Threshold link available on the Storage Dashboard to access this operation.
  4. Click Execute. The Set Threshold for Remaining Rated Write Endurance window is displayed with the following options:
    • Set Threshold for PCIe SSD (1–100) — Displays the default threshold value for all PCIe SSDs
    • Set Threshold for SAS/SATA SSD (1–100) — Displays the default threshold value for all SAS/SATA SSDs
  5. Type the threshold values for one or both the available options and click Apply Changes.
    • NOTE: If you click Apply Changes without entering a new threshold value for either of the available options an error message is displayed. Enter a new threshold value and then click Apply Changes to successfully complete the task.
  6. After you click Apply Changes, Storage Management updates the system with the new threshold values. After the task is completed, you will be redirected to the Information/Configuration window.
    • NOTE: The newly entered threshold values are retained even after you upgrade Server Administrator.
    • NOTE: When the Remaining Rated Write Endurance Threshold drops below the configured threshold, an Alert is logged and the SNMP trap is received for the same. For more information on SNMP traps, see the Dell OpenManage SNMP Reference Guide at dell.com/openmanagemanuals.
