The Volume Utilization dashboard is a Premium dashboard that provides a hierarchical view of your volume’s folder structure, displaying up to three levels of depth from the most recent volume scan.

4. Under **Actions**, click the ![](https://cdn.document360.io/2adf6ce2-c120-4520-b135-0fc4463ddde3/Images/Documentation/image-VU7HGEU7.png) icon.
5. Using the Volume Configuration pop-up box, enter a **Volume Label** and a **Volume Path**.

> ***Note:****The volume path lets you choose where volume utilization statistics begin being calculated. By default, this is set to “/”, meaning the calculation starts at the root of the volume and includes all contents.*
> 
> *Since the dashboard only displays up to three levels of folder depth, you can set a volume path other than “/” when a volume has a deeper folder structure. This allows calculations to start from the folder that contains the relevant data, rather than from the volume root.*

> ***Note****: The volume path returns an error if the path does not exist at the time the last scan was taken.*
