System Configuration
vSphere accesses VVOLs through Protocol Endpoints (PE). The server recognizes PEs as logical vol-
umes. VVOLs are created in a pool called a storage container. Storage containers and VVOLs corre-
spond to FTRPs and FTVs of the
ETERNUS DX.

ETERNUS DX uses FTRPs as storage contain-
ers. Multiple storage containers can be created in the ETERNUS DX.
