Monitoring volumes to find out if the amount of data processed is dangerously growing close to the volume's limit will help you not being caught short of space without warning.
To identify the volumes that generate the most traffic, you will need to create a simple one-row dashboard. Dashboards allow you to gather specific types of data and display them in a consolidated graphical format. For detailed information about dashboards options and features, refer to the BMC documentation.
