PowerProtect Data Manager 19.10 Administration and User Guide
Smart Scale system pools
A system pool is a logical group of DD systems with one interface to flexible storage options. PowerProtect Data Manager can use a system pool as protection storage.
The DDOS Administration Guide and PowerProtect DD Management Center Installation and Administration Guide provide more information about Smart Scale, system pools, and the available features. The DDMC instance must be Smart Scale-enabled to use system pools.
After you add the DDMC instance, PowerProtect Data Manager automatically discovers any available system pools. The Model column on the Protection Storage tab indicates that the protection storage system is a system pool.
PowerProtect Data Manager groups system pools under a separate heading in the list for protection storage selection when working with protection policies.
NOTE
Adding a DDMC instance with system pools also discovers the individual systems within the system pool. PowerProtect Data Manager includes these systems in lists of available storage targets, such as for protection policy creation. As with a non-Smart Scale DDMC instance, the page groups and identifies these systems through the Managed By column in the list of protection storage systems.
Some roles do not allow you to view the page to identify the relationships between systems and system pools. If your role does not allow you to view this information, coordinate storage target assignments with your system administrator.
Protection policies that target a system pool can replicate to another system pool or to a stand-alone protection storage system. Conversely, policies that target a stand-alone protection storage system can replicate to another protection storage system or to a system pool.
