Tree of Parity Groups and VDEVs
•
The tree of parity groups and VDEVs (on the left side of the Customized Volume window)
shows the hierarchical structure of the storage system. For example, a disk group number
(Box1), parity group number (1-1), RAID level (RAID1(2D+2D)), and VDEV number (1-1-(1))
are shown.
◦
If you open the Internal folder, the tree shows parity groups in the local storage system
(that is, the storage system you are currently logged in to).
◦
If you open the External folder, the tree shows parity groups in external storage systems.
◦
If you open the XP Snapshot folder, the tree shows parity groups containing XP Snapshot
VDEVs.
◦
If you open the XP Thin Provisioning folder, the tree shows parity groups containing HP
StorageWorks XP Thin Provisioning Software VDEVs.
NOTE:
◦
A parity group number starting with E (for example, E1-1) indicates that the parity group
consists of one or more external volumes.
◦
A parity group number starting with V (for example, V1-1) indicates that the parity group
consists of one or more XP Snapshot virtual volumes (V-VOLs).
◦
A parity group number starting with X (for example, X1-1) indicates that the parity group
consists of one or more XP Thin Provisioning virtual volumes (V-VOLs).
