Some special cases apply:

If a user has the Modify or higher roles for parity groups or the LDEV ID of a THP/Smart pool
volume, and an unused LDEV ID is assigned to the user, the user can create a volume.

If a user has the Modify or higher roles for ports, and an unused Host Group ID is assigned to the
user, the user can allocate new volumes by using that Host Group ID.

If the LDEV ID of a THP/Smart volume is assigned to a user, the user can view the THP/Smart pool
to which the THP/Smart volume belongs and the THP/Smart pool volumes that compose the THP/
Smart pool. If the LDEV ID of a THP/Smart pool volume is assigned to a user, the user can view
the pool to which the THP/Smart pool volume belongs.

If a parity group is assigned to a user, the user can view all volumes that belong to the parity
group from a list of volumes that appears when displaying the parity group information. If a parity
group is not assigned to a user and only the LDEV IDs of the volumes belonging to the parity group
are assigned to a user, the user cannot view that parity group.
