About pool volumes from accelerated compression-enabled parity groups

Volumes carved from accelerated compression-enabled parity groups can only be used as pool volumes to create or expand a pool. Pools that contain pool volumes from accelerated compression-enabled parity groups must be monitored to ensure adequate pool capacity. You can set thresholds for used pool capacity that trigger the output of SIMs when exceeded, enabling you to expand the pool or delete unwanted data before the pool becomes full.

• Dynamic Provisioning

  Thin provisioning is an approach to managing storage that maximizes physical storage capacity. Instead of reserving a fixed amount of storage for a volume, capacity from the available physical pool is assigned when data is actually written to the storage media.
