support volumes that draw space from a CPG.

Device Type

set the disk type to Fibre Channel (FC), Nearline (NL), or Solid State
(SSD).

set the disk speed.

difference between the drive and the other drives in the system. For FC and NL drives, the

number corresponds to both a performance measure and actual rotational speed. For an
SSD drive, the number is to be treated as relative performance benchmark that takes into

RAID Type

set the VV's RAID type.

Set Size

specify the VV's set size.
