Occasionally, you might need to review the status of your NSS system storage devices or storage space. This section explains how to use ConsoleOne to view the status and usage of your storage devices, storage pools, and volumes.
You can view the free space on all NSS and traditional partitions. Partitioned free space is space within an NSS partition that is not occupied by a storage pool. On a traditional partition, space that is not occupied by a NetWare® volume is free space.

Right-click on the server object and select Properties.
Click Media > Free Space.
The left panel lists the storage devices that have free space.
Select the device you want.
For information about the Free Space screen, click Help.
