Description
Item
pool management blocks in use. The capacity of pool
management blocks is calculated, based on the
assumption that the remaining space of the V-VOL
management area is used as pool management blocks.
If the remaining space of the V-VOL management area
is used for pool association information, the maximum
possible capacity of pool management blocks is
decreased due to decrease in the remaining space of
the V-VOL management area.
You need to keep the capacity of the pool management
blocks in use less than its total capacity.
CAUTION:
The value displayed for Total Capacity in
the Pool Information box and the value displayed for
Pool Mng.
Capacity : used are approximately equal, but there may
be some differences. Also note that even if the value
displayed for Total Capacity in the Pool Information box
is updated when the pool-VOLs are added to or deleted
from the pool, the value displayed for Pool Mng.
Capacity : used will not be updated until you click
Apply.
