Initializing V-VOL management areas or pool management blocks

This section describes how to initialize the whole V-VOL management areas or a pool management block

in the V-VOL management area.

Initializing V-VOL management areas

By initializing the whole V-VOL management area, the V-VOL management area is used more efficiently.

Therefore, you can create a pool with a capacity that is larger than before the initialization or create

more pools compared to before the initialization.
