6.5 Creating Custom volumes
The Create Volumes window enables Custom volume creation. It provides an alternative
method of defining Capacity savings options, such as Thin-provisioning and Compression,
but also expands on the base level default options for available Basic and Mirrored volumes. A
Custom
volume can be customized regarding Mirror sync rate, Cache mode, and
Fast-Format.
The Custom volume creation operation consists of several options:
Volume Location (Mandatory, defines the Pools to be used)
Volume Details (Mandatory, defines the
Capacity savings option such as Thin Provisioning
or Compression or none)
General (for changing default options for Cache mode and Formatting)
