Description
Item
Select how storage space is provisioned. Make a selection from the menu:
Thin. Even though you specify the size of the LUN when you create it, storage
space is assigned on demand instead of up front. The size of the LUN is
reported as the total storage space that you specify when you create the
LUN.
Thick. All storage space that you specify when you create the LUN is also
allocated up front. The size of the LUN is reported as the total storage space
that you specify when you create the LUN. This is the default method.
Make sure that you watch the volume capacity of the volume on
which the overallocated LUN resides so you do not run out of
storage space unexpectedly.
Note
We recommend that you do not use an overallocated thin LUN
for storage of critical data. Instead, use a thick LUN.
Note
