If a pool's usage rate becomes high, you can continue using the pool by expanding the capacity of the pool.
Pools for thin provisioning are virtual areas in a storage system that are associated with multiple drives. Thin provisioning provides virtual volumes to a server and uses the actual capacity from a pool when a server makes a write request.
VSP One Block Administrator displays a recommended configuration, from among various configurations supported by the storage system. This configuration consists of the combination of drives that allow drive space to be used most effectively.
- Make sure that the drive is added and check the drive configuration.
- Identify the pool name.
- Make sure that the user performing the procedure has been assigned the Storage Administrator (Provisioning) role.
