Virtual Provisioning in VMax
Below are the steps involved to setup Virtual Provisioning.Here i am assuming that,there is an existing storage group called MyStorageGroup and we need to allocate the new thin device to that SG.
Create a Thin Pool
create pool ThinPool1 type =thin;
Create DATA Devices
Create 4 x 2GB Raid-5 , DATA Devices.
create dev count=4, config=RAID-5, data_member_count=3, attribute=datadev, emulation=FBA, size=2GB, disk_group=1;
Add DATA Devices to thin pool
0A00:0A03 are DATA devices created in the previous step.
add dev 0A00:0A03 to pool ThinPool1 type=thin member_state =ENABLE;
Create Thin Devices
Create 2 thin devices of size 4GB each.
create dev count=2, config=TDEV, emulation=FBA, size=4GB;
Bind Thin Devices to Thin pool
0A04:0A05 are Thin devices created in the previous step.
bind tdev 0A04:0A05 to pool ThinPool1;
Add thin devices to Storage Group
Here we are adding the thin devices 0A04:0A05 , to the Storage Group MyStorageGroup.
symaccess -sid 1234 -name MyStorageGroup -type storage add devs 0A04:0A05 ;
You are Done !
