Working with pools
About pools
Thin Provisioning requires the use of pools. A pool consists of more than one pool-VOL. A storage
system supports up to 128 pools, each of which can contain up to 1024 pool-VOLs and 63,232
THP V-VOLs per pool.
Snapshot also uses pools. The 128-pool maximum per storage system applies to the total number
of both Snapshot pools, and Thin Provisioning pools, and Smart Tiers pools. The pool for Thin
Provisioning or Snapshot or Smart Tiers cannot be used in conjunction with other pools. For more
information, see the HP P9000 Snapshot User Guide.
A pool number must be assigned to a pool. Multiple THP V-VOLs can be related to one pool.
