may not be applied in some cases. If so, ensure the value of the resident cache size and
check the Resident Cache Size check box.

In Resident Cache Size, edit the resident cache capacity as needed. The minimum size is
0 GB, and the size can be changed in increments of 0.5 GB. The maximum available
capacity (subtract the total usage capacity of other CLPRs from the total capacity of the
storage system) is displayed as the maximum size. If resident cache exists in the selected
CLPR and you select a resident cache size that is smaller than the existing resident cache,
an error will occur. Before decreasing the size, check the resident cache capacity set in
the selected CLPR.

In Number of Resident Extents, edit the number of resident cache extents as needed. You
can specify from 0 to 16384. The maximum available capacity (subtract the total usage
capacity of other CLPRs from the total capacity of the storage system) is displayed as the
maximum value. If resident cache exists in the selected CLPR and you select fewer resident
cache extents than the existing number of extents, an error will occur. Before decreasing
the number, check the number of resident extents set in the selected CLPR.
