Calculating licensed capacity

Use the formula in the following table to estimate capacity for purchase. When you calculate the volume capacity, round the value up to the second decimal place.

An example is shown in the following table. For example, if the volume capacity is 60 GB and the number of volumes is 512, estimated capacity for purchase is at least 30 TB.

Number of volumes

512

Total capacity of all the volumes

60 GB × 512 = 30,720 GB

30,720 GB / 1,024 = 30 TB

Estimated required capacity

At least 30 TB
