HP StorageWorks LUN Configuration Manager XP: user’s guide

Custom volume capacity

Open system volumes are composed of 512-byte pieces called logical
blocks. Logical Block Addresses (LBAs) are used for referring to locations
within open system volumes. Use the following table when you configure
custom volumes.

Storage subsystem ID (SSID) requirements

Each CU contains four logical subsystems, each of which contain 64
logical devices. It may be necessary to specify an SSID when creating
custom volumes. Any value can be used for the SSID of OPEN-x devices.
The only constraint is that the lowest SSID number used must be evenly
divisible by four.
