Workflow for registering virtual volumes

Use this workflow to register virtual volumes.

1. (VSP 5000 series) Check the SSID of the V-VOL you want to register to the pool-VOL’s paired volume, and edit the SSID as needed (see Editing the SSID for virtual volumes).
2. Check the V-VOL settings and change the settings as needed (see Changing V-VOL settings).
3. Register the V-VOL (see Creating V-VOLs for Thin Image S-VOLs).
4. If you plan to use an existing V-VOL that has capacity saving enabled and assigned pages as an S-VOL of a clone pair, prepare the V-VOL first (see Using an existing V-VOL as an S-VOL in a clone pair).
