3.7.3 Volume Set Function
A volume set is seen by the host system as a single logical de-
vice; it is organized in a RAID level within the controller utiliz
-
ing one or more physical disks. RAID level refers to the level of
data performance and protection of a volume set. A volume set
can consume all of the capacity or a portion of the available disk
capacity of a RAID set. Multiple volume sets can exist on a RAID
set. If multiple volume sets reside on a specified RAID set, all
volume sets will reside on all physical disks in the RAID set. Thus
each volume set on the RAID set will have its data spread evenly
across all the disks in the RAID set rather than one volume set
using some of the available disks and another volume set using
other disks.
