T
Thin Provisioning
(ThP, TP)
Using the thin provisioning, you can operate with a global pool of LDEVs that are not assigned
to a physical storage. The XP and the P9000 disk arrays add virtual capacity from the pool of
LDEVs as and when the data is written, and only at that time is the physical capacity assigned
to the LDEVs and used for storage purpose.
Tiered Storage
Manager (TSM)
Tiered Storage Manager Software is used to perform migration, where data stored on one volume
is moved to another volume in the disk arrays. Tiered Storage Manager moves data that resides
on predefined set of volumes to another set of volumes with the same characteristics. For more
information, see the manuals set provided for Tiered Storage Manager on the HP Manuals page.
