2

Create a new unit or migrate an existing unit to include the drives you 
want to use.

If the combined capacity of the drives exceeds the carve size, a number of 
volumes will be created. 

3

Verify the creation of the volumes.

In 3DM 2, the number of volumes is shown on the Unit Details page.

Verify that the volumes appear in the operating system. They will appear 
as additional drives. 

                                      

Setting the Size of Volumes Created with 

Auto-Carving

If you create units over 2 TB in size and use auto-carving to divide them into 
multiple volumes, you can control the size of the volumes to be created by 
setting the carve size to use. The carve size can be between 1 TB (1024 GB) 
and 2 TB (2048 GB); the default is 2 TB.

When you change this policy, it applies to units you create in the future. 
Existing units will not be affected.

1

Choose 

 from the menu bar in 3DM.

2

In the Other Controller Settings section at the bottom of the screen, in the 

field, enter the size you want (between 1024 GB and 204  

GB) to use and click 

.

The page refreshes, and a message at the top confirms the change you 
have made. 

 

When volumes have been created through auto-carving, they cannot be 
deleted except by deleting the unit.

Changing the auto-carve policy does not affect existing units.
