Description
Item
•
Protection: Data protection level
SATA-W/V: Write and Verify method on SATA drives

V-VOLs
HP recommends that the data protection level be the
same for pool-VOLs in the same pool.
•
PG: parity group to which the pool-VOL belongs
•
Encryption: Status of volume encryption
Enable indicates the volume is encrypted.
Disable indicates the volume is not encrypted.
Hyphen (-) appears if the volume is other than internal
volumes.
•
Int. VOL Info: drive type of internal volumes. Nothing
will be displayed for FC drives. An asterisk ( * ) will be
displayed for a SATA drive. A dollar sign ( $ ) will be
displayed for an SSD drive. Three consecutive hyphens
(- - -) will display for an external volume.
Pool-VOLs with different drive types cannot be
intermixed in the same pool.
•
Ext. VOL Info: drive type of external volumes. Nothing
will be displayed for FC drives. An asterisk ( * ) will be
displayed for a SATA or BD drive. A dollar sign ( $ )

As a best practice, you should specify the same drive
type for all pool-VOLs registered in the same pool.

the external volume is mapped. Pool-VOLs with different
cache modes cannot be intermixed in the same pool.

An LDEV number that ends with the letter X indicates
that the LDEV is a virtual volume used by XP Thin
Provisioning (for example, 00:00:00X). For details
