Use the following formula to calculate the number of cache management devices that a THP V-VOL
requires. In this formula, the user-specified capacity is the user area capacity of a V-VOL.
ceil(user-specified capacity ÷ max-capacity-of-cache-management-device)
The calculated value must be rounded up to the nearest whole number.
Calculating the number of cache management devices required by a volume that is
not a THP V-VOL
One volume that is not a THP V-VOL requires one cache management device.
