162 Custom Volume Size operations

This pane has the following features:

• CVS volume-setting information table: On the upper right of the pane, displays detailed information

about the CVS volumes to be created.

• Parity Group: Number of the VDEV to which the CVS volume belongs. The VDEV number indicates

the parity group where the VDEV belongs. For example, if the 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).

• No.: CVS volume’s setting number.

• Emulation: CVS volume’s emulation type.

• Capacity: CVS volume’s capacity displayed in the unit selected from the Capacity Unit list on the

Install CV pane (1).

• CU:LDEV: CU and LDEV numbers for the CVS volume to be created. The default is blank.

NOTE: If an LDEV number ends with # (for example, 00:01#), the LDEV is an external LU. For

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

• Select LDEV No. area: Used to set LDEV numbers for the CVS volumes you are creating.

• Select CU No.: Select a CU number from the drop-down list. The default is CU 00.LDEV number

settings for the selected CU number appear in the Select LDEV No. table.

• Interval: When selecting more than one volume, use this list to set the interval between the LDEV

numbers to be assigned to the newly created volumes. The default value is 0. When you select 0,

consecutive LDEV numbers are assigned.

NOTE: The value you specify as the interval between LDEV numbers counts only available LDEV

numbers and skips those that are not selectable.

• Select LDEV No. table: Displays LDEV numbers for the CU number selected from the Select CU No.

list. Gray indicates LDEV numbers that are not selectable, white indicates unused LDEV numbers,

and blue indicates available LDEV numbers. You can select an LDEV number from the white LDEV

numbers in the table. When you set the LDEV number, that LDEV number becomes available and

changes to blue.

NOTE: LDEV numbers that are not selectable might already be in use or assigned to another

emulation group (grouped by 32 LDEV numbers) (see Table 38).
