    The displayed value of Reserved might be larger than the displayed value of Total due to following reasons:

    • Reserved displays the reserved capacity that is rounded up on each page.
    • The mapped capacity of V-VOL for Dynamic Provisioning includes the capacity of control information (168 MB is required per 3,145,548 MB).
  • Used: Displays the sum of the mapped capacity and the reserved capacity.

    The displayed value of Used might be larger than the displayed value of Total due to following reasons:

    • Used displays the sum of the mapped capacity and the reserved capacity that is rounded up on each page.

      If used capacity is referenced during I/O or copy processing by software such as ShadowImage or Universal Replicator, the used capacity displayed might be different from the actual capacity even if the full allocation is enabled on the V-VOL. This is caused by a gap between the times that information is gathered about the mapped capacity and the reserved capacity.
