XP256 VSC operations
The first step in performing VSC operations is to convert one or more
normal-size volumes to VSC volumes. When you convert a normal volume
to a VSC volume, all of the logical blocks in the volume become available
for use in custom size volumes (CVs). You can define the first CU during
the normal-to-VSC conversion process, and you can define additional CVs
as needed under that VSC volume up to a maximum of 32 volumes per
parity group (array group) using the install CV process.
If your disk array was configured with one or more VSC volumes during
installation, you can bypass the normal-to-VSC conversion process and
begin installing new CVs immediately.
VSC operations include:
• viewing the current VSC information
• converting a normal volume to a VSC volume
• installing a CV
• deinstalling a CV
• converting a VSC volume to a normal volume
The following operations are for the XP256 only.
