Configuring volumes in a parity group

The Virtual LUN functions of Delete LDEVs and Create LDEVs are performed on each parity group. Parity groups are also separated from each other by boundary limitations. Therefore, you cannot define a volume across two or more parity groups beyond these boundaries.

As the result of the Virtual LUN operations, a parity group contains FVs, CVs, and free spaces that are delimited in logical cylinders. Sequential free spaces are combined into a single free space.

The following depicts an example of configuring volumes in a parity group:

    Configuring custom-sized provisioning involves creating and configuring custom-size volumes (CVs). CVs are created by dividing a fixed-sized volume (FV) into several smaller volumes of arbitrary sizes.
