Sample ISP deployments
Figure 1-7 Effect of setting the value of the AutoGrow policy to pool
If the AutoGrow policy level were to remain set to the default value of
diskgroup, this would allow the ISP to aggregate LUNs from the disk group.
Figure 1-8 illustrates how setting the AutoGrow policy to diskgroup allows
LUNs from the same disk group that are outside the storage pool to be used, and
setting the SelfSufficient policy to host allows templates that provide the
required capabilities to be imported from outside the storage pool or disk group.
