Editing a Virtual Volume Template
When editing a template, the HP 3PAR Management Console verifies if there are unsupported
properties in the existing template. If any unsupported properties are found, a warning message
to that effect is displayed. The unsupported properties are dropped when the edited template is
saved.
Properties no longer supported are:
• Fully Provisioned from physical disks
• Copy size
• Copy size percent
• Disk pattern
• RAID
• Set size
• Row size
• Step size
• Availability
• Preferred chunklets
If the existing template contains user and copy CPGs from different domains, a warning message
is displayed. The copy CPG is cleared, and you must re-select a copy CPG from the same domain
as the user CPG.
