After the child pool is created it is listed in the Pools panel under its parent pool, as shown in

Figure 4-37. Toggle the arrow sign in the left of the storage pool name to either show or hide

Actions on child storage pools

All actions supported for parent storage pools are supported for child storage pools, with the

exception of Add Storage. Child pools additionally support the Resize action.

Note: You cannot create an encrypted child pool from an unencrypted parent pool if the

parent pool contains any unencrypted array or an MDisk that is not self-encrypting and

there are nodes in the system that do not support software encryption (for example, nodes

that do not have encryption license enabled).

An encrypted child pool created from an unencrypted parent pool reports as unencrypted if

the parent pool contains any unencrypted arrays. Remove these arrays to ensure that the

child pool is fully encrypted.
