Creating volume means marking existing device as accessible to HSG management, deleting

volume means returning device to free device pool.

2

Solutions Enabler 5.0 or later is required.

3

Volumes created on IBM storage systems cannot be deleted.

RAID level can be specified for first volume in a pool, subsequent volumes inherit this setting

The “Create Volume Using Settings” column refers to the provisioning capability on the

management server that lets you create different kinds of volumes from a pool depending on

whether you want it optimized, such as for streaming, random access or high availability.
