This diagram depicts physical storage divided into

two redundancy groups. Hard drives in the odd

numbered drive bays are in redundancy group 1.
Hard drives in the even numbered drive bays are

in redundancy group 2.

Two LUNs are shown. LUNs aggregate the
storage in a single redundancy group into one or

more general “pools” of storage.

Two volume groups are shown. Volume groups
combine one or more LUN storage pools into a

“volume” of storage that can be allocated by the

NAS 8000 operating system for use.


Four file volumes are shown. File volumes partition

the storage volumes into accessible storage (file

systems).


Eight directories/nfs shares are shown. These are

the mount points that various clients can use to

gain access to the NAS 8000 storage.
