6.5 Creating Custom volumes

The Create Volumes window enables Custom volume creation. It provides an alternative

method of defining Capacity savings options, such as Thin-provisioning and Compression,

but also expands on the base level default options for available Basic and Mirrored volumes. A

Custom

volume can be customized regarding Mirror sync rate, Cache mode, and

Fast-Format.

The Custom volume creation operation consists of several options:

򐂰 Volume Location (Mandatory, defines the Pools to be used)

򐂰 Volume Details (Mandatory, defines the

Capacity savings option such as Thin Provisioning

or Compression or none)

򐂰 General (for changing default options for Cache mode and Formatting)
