Array groups overview
You can manage your physical and virtualized infrastructure in the Storage Plugin for vCenter by grouping a set of storage systems. You might want to group storage systems to make it easier to run monitoring or reporting jobs.
Types of storage system groups:
-
All group — The All group is the default group and includes all the storage systems discovered in your organization. The All group can be accessed from the main view.
-
User-created group — A user-created group includes the storage systems that you manually select to add to that group. User-created groups can be accessed from the main view.
