Error description
The current values for volume metrics "Tier 0 Flash Capacity (GiB)" and "Tier 1 Flash Capacity (GiB)" are shown for the historical values as well after upgrading Spectrum Control to 5.2.15, 5.2.15.2 or 5.2.16 even if before the upgrade the historical values were different. Before 5.2.15, 5.2.15.2 or 5.2.16, those metrics were loaded from some fields from T_RES_TIERING_INFO_SNAPSHOT_GENERIC_SSD_VIEW which is a view based on T_RES_TIERING_INFO_SNAPSHOT which has the historical capacity information. In 5.2.15, 5.2.15.2 or 5.2.16, those metrics are loaded from T_STORAGE_VOLUME, where there is no such historical information, just the current values for those metrics.
