Parameters

Parameter Description

allVolumes

The parameter to return performance statistics about all of the volumes in the storage system.

volume

The name of a volume for which you want to retrieve information. Enclose the volume name in square brackets ([ ]). If the volume name has special characters or numbers, you must enclose the name in double quotation marks (" ") inside square brackets.
