Creating Fast Snap data pools

to add to the data pool.
NOTE:
You can only register volumes that you have not already registered as a pool-VOL.
For more information about data pool requirements, including the maximum number of pool-VOLs,
see
“Fast Snap data pool requirements” (page 30)
.
You can add external and internal volumes to data pools.
NOTE:
There are limitations to adding external and internal volumes to data pools. For more
information about these limitations, see the requirements for FS pool-VOLs listed in
volume requirements” (page 29)
