Parity groups and volumes

When adding drives to increase LDEV free space, the free space can be increased in the storage system by configuring RAID. The storage systems support RAID 1, RAID 5, and RAID 6.

In one parity group, a maximum of 2,048 volumes and some free space is available. The maximum number of LDEVs in each storage system model is:

  • VSP G130: 2,048
  • VSP G350, VSP F350: 16,384
  • VSP G370, VSP F370: 32,768
  • VSP G700, VSP F700: 49,152
  • VSP G900, VSP F900: 65,280
