Figure 97 Make Volume pane (1) for OPEN-V

Thispanehasthefollowingfeatures:

• Parity Group: VDEV number of the CVS volume to be initialized. The VDEV number indicates

the parity group where the VDEV belongs. For example, if VDEV number 1-1-(1) appears, the

VDEV belongs to parity group number 1-1.

NOTE:

If a VDEV number starts with E (for example, E1-1-(1)), the VDEV belongs to a parity group that

consists of one or more external LUs.

NOTE:

If a VDEV number starts with V (for example, V1-1-(1)), the VDEV belongs to a parity group that

consists of one or more virtual volumes (V-VOLs).

• Emulation:CVSvolume'semulationtype(OPEN-V).

• LDEV information table: Displays the following information about the CVS volume settings:

• No.:CVSvolume'ssettingnumber.

• Emulation:CVSvolume'semulationtype(OPEN-V).

• Capacity: CVS volume's capacity displayed in the unit selected from the Capacity Unit list.

• available LDEVs: Number of LDEVs that can be created in the VDEV. The maximum is 512

LDEVs for RAID5 (7D+1P), and 256 LDEVs for other RAID levels.

• Capacity Unit: Unit the CVS volume's capacity is displayed in.

• MB: Megabytes (MB). This unit is used for specifying the capacity of open-system volumes.

• Cyl: Cylinders (Cyl). This unit is used for specifying the capacity of mainframe volumes.

NOTE:

This unit can also be used for specifying the capacity of OPEN-V volumes.

• Block: Blocks. This unit is used for specifying the capacity of external LUs. For more

information about external LUs, see the HP StorageWorks External Storage XP user guide.
