Glossary 49
storage pool - data pool, clone pool
Storage pools are associated with disk groups. Storage pools are defined by templates,
capabilities and policies. Policies governing a storage pool decide
◆ to grow a storage pool to accommodate additional storage
◆ to use templates not currently associated with it.
There are two types of storage pools: data pools and clone pools. Data pools are created
first. All other storage pools that are created within a disk group are clone pools.
