Hitachi VSP G400 System Administration Guide

Caution: If you use Dynamic Provisioning, the licensed capacity might
become insufficient because the used capacity of Dynamic Provisioning pools
could increase, even if you do not add any volumes. If this happens, you
must purchase an additional license within 30 days to increase the capacity
to match the new volume size. For instructions to calculate pool capacity, see
the Provisioning Guide.
Table 11 Licensed capacity types
Type
Description
Used capacity The licensed capacity is calculated by using one of the following
capacities:
• Normal volumes (volumes)
• External volumes mapped to the storage system
• Pools
If the pool contains pool volumes that belong in accelerated compression-
enabled parity groups, you must purchase physical capacity of the pool
for the license capacity.
Mounted capacity/
usable capacity
The licensed capacity is estimated by using the capacity of all the volumes
in the storage system.
When you estimate for the capacity of the accelerated compression-
enabled parity groups, the physical capacity of the parity group is the
maximum of the estimated capacity, even if you created an internal
volume which exceeds the physical capacity of the accelerated
compression-enabled parity group. See the Provisioning Guide for an
explanation of accelerated compression.
Unlimited capacity You can use the software regardless of the volume capacity.
