For more information, see the PowerVault Modular Disk Storage Manager 

online help topics.

The following factors contribute to the overall performance of the storage 

array:

• I/O activity 
• Virtual  disk  RAID  level 
• Virtual disk configuration—Number of drives in the virtual disk groups 
• Virtual disk type—Snapshot virtual disks might take more time to copy 

than standard virtual disks 

During a virtual disk copy, resources for the storage array are diverted from 

processing I/O activity to completing a virtual disk copy. This affects the 

overall performance of the storage array. When you create a new virtual disk 

copy, you define the copy priority to determine how much controller 

processing time is diverted from I/O activity to a virtual disk copy operation.
