Editing a Virtual Volume Template

When editing a template, the HP 3PAR Management Console verifies if there are unsupported
properties in the existing template. If any unsupported properties are found, a warning message
to that effect is displayed. The unsupported properties are dropped when the edited template is
saved.

Properties no longer supported are:

Fully Provisioned from physical disks

Copy size

Copy size percent

Disk pattern

RAID

Set size

Row size

Step size

Availability

Preferred chunklets

If the existing template contains user and copy CPGs from different domains, a warning message
is displayed. The copy CPG is cleared, and you must re-select a copy CPG from the same domain
as the user CPG.
