About creating V-VOLs
Replication Manager supports creation of V-VOLs on storage system configurations. This function is
only supported for XP24000/XP20000 or HP StorageWorks P9500 storage systems. After creating
V-VOLs, it is necessary to assign LUNs to them in order to create copy pairs. Assignment of LUNs
should be done using Device Manager. Replication Manager provides a wizard for creating V-VOLs
