description:
 Monitors the base volumes of a Dell PowerVault ME5 system: volume health,
 whether the current owning controller matches the preferred owner, the
 allocated size and the thin-provisioned fill ratio.

 Performance is reported from the array's volume statistics: throughput, IOPS,
 the read and write split derived from the cumulative counters, and the current
 read and write cache hit ratios. All values are graphed for trending, and
 optional levels are available.

 Snapshots are volumes on the ME5 but are not shown here; they are covered by
 the "Dell PowerVault ME5: Snapshots" check.

 State is taken from the volume health value reported by the array. Conditions
 are configurable via the "Dell PowerVault ME5 volume" ruleset.

item:
 The volume name.

discovery:
 One service is created per base volume.
