Usage for RAID Groups and Thin Provisioning
This section describes usage for RAID Groups and Thin Provisioning.
RAID groups are areas for storing normal data that are used when the volume capacity requirements can be
estimated in advance. Business volumes and Advanced Copy volumes (Standard type volumes, WSVs, Snap
Data Volumes (SDVs), and Snap Data Pool Volumes (SDPVs)) can be created in RAID groups.
Thin Provisioning manages drives in a pool and assigns virtual logical volumes when data is written from the
host. Thin Provisioning enables operations to be started with less drive capacity even if the capacity require-
ments cannot be estimated. Thin Provisioning Volumes (TPVs) are created in Thin Provisioning Pools.
