View how much capacity is being used and compression rates

I would like to know the over all amount of capacity that a host is consuming at the backend from Storage Insights. Today with the compresstimator being built into SVC I would to see this functionality also added to to SI Pro where I can monitor the host and compressability of their data. This would help me determine not only how much physical capacity was consumed at the SVC but if I take into account compress at HW level how much capacity is consumed at the backend.

    The IBM Storage Insights development team is already tracking a related development request and will add this scenario to it. It is on our roadmap, but does not have a committed delivery date.
