Figure 2-3 illustrates a conceptual array domain. All functions, paths, and data
drives controlled by one BED pair are called an “array domain.” An array
domain can contain a variety of LVI and/or LU configurations. RAID-level
intermix (all RAID types) is allowed within an array domain (under a BED pair)
but not within an array group.
