The first storage pool contains two volumes. The first volume has a UUID, display name and
management URL as specified above. It has no tags.
<Capacity>100000000</Capacity>
<CommittedCapacity>0</CommittedCapacity>
<RaidLevel>RL1</RaidLevel>
</Volume>
The first volume has a capacity of one hundred thousand bytes, a committed capacity of zero
bytes, and a RAID level of PRaid1. Note that the raid level is specified in terms understood by the
storage array, not in terms understood by SPM.

The second volume contains a presentation that is not present in the first volume. This presentation
specifies that the host called “Object-1” will be presented read/write access to the two ports called
“Object-2” and “Object-3” from this storage array, and that it will use logical unit number zero to
represent this volume.
