Table 27 Pool Window Description (continued)
DescriptionItem
Among the volumes in the CU which is selected from the
CU drop-down list, the volumes that can be specified as
pool-VOLs will be displayed. The following items are
displayed in the list.
• LDKC:CU:LDEV: LDKC number, CU number, and LDEV
number of the volume
An LDEV number that ends with a # indicates that the
LDEV is an external volume (for example, 00:00:01#).
An LDEV number that ends with the letter X indicates
that the LDEV is a virtual volume used by XP Thin
Provisioning (for example, 00:00:00X). For details
regarding external volumes, see the HP StorageWorks
XP24000/XP20000 External Storage Software User
Guide. For information about XP Thin Provisioning, see
the HP StorageWorks XP24000/XP20000 Thin
Provisioning Software User Guide.
• Capacity: capacity of the volume
• Emulation: emulation type of the volume
• RAID: RAID level (- - - will be displayed in case of an
external volume)
• Protection: Data protection level
SATA-W/V: Write and Verify method on SATA drives
Standard: FC drives, flash drives, external volumes, or
V-VOLs
HP recommends that the data protection level be the
same for pool-VOLs in the same pool.
• PG: parity group to which the volume belongs
• Encryption: Status of volume encryption
Enable indicates the volume is encrypted.
Disable indicates the volume is not encrypted.
Hyphen (-) appears if the volume is other than internal
volumes.
• Int. VOL Info: drive type of internal volumes. Nothing
will be displayed for FC drives. An asterisk ( * ) will be
displayed for a SATA drive. A dollar sign ( $ ) will be
displayed for an SSD drive. Three consecutive hyphens
(- - -) will be displayed for an external volume.
Pool-VOLs with different drive types cannot be
intermixed in the same pool.
• Ext. VOL Info: drive type of external volumes. Nothing
will be displayed for FC drives. An asterisk ( * ) will be
displayed for a SATA or BD drive. A dollar sign ( $ )
will be displayed for an SSD drive. Three consecutive
hyphens (- - -) will be displayed for an internal volume.
As a best practice, you should specify the same drive
type for all pool-VOLs registered in the same pool.
• Cache Mode: if the volume is an external volume, cache
mode is displayed. This cache mode is specified when
the external volume is mapped. Pool-VOLs with different
cache modes cannot be intermixed in the same pool.
• CLPR: number of the CLPR to which the volume belongs
• Selected LDEVs: total number of the volumes that are
selected in the list
