Estimating required FMC capacity

To create or expand a pool that uses LDEVs carved from accelerated compression-enabled parity groups, you must first estimate the required FMC capacity. The Accelerated Flash Compression Estimator Tool enables you to estimate the amount of FMC capacity to install for a new pool or when expanding an existing pool.
