As the result of CVS operations, a VDEV contains FVs, CVs, and free spaces that are delimited in logical
cylinders. Sequential free spaces are combined into a single free space (see
).

Volume to Space function
This function converts one or more LDEVs (FVs or CVs) into free space, which deletes the selected LDEVs
from that VDEV.
The following are the restrictions on LDEVs and LUSE volumes for the Volume to Space operation:
•
The LDEV must not be path-defined (including TrueCopy for z/OS, Continuous Access XP,
ShadowImage for z/OS, Business Copy XP, and Continuous Access XP Journal pair volumes).
•
The LDEV must not be a component of a LUSE volume.
•
The LDEV must not be reserved for Auto LUN XP.
