Select Thin or Exact Provisioning
Select the desired type of provisioning.
If Thin Provisioning is selected, the volume can be assigned a size greater than the actual
physical size of the storage device. For example, if the storage device has an actual physical
size of 500 GB, the user can assign a size of up to 256 TB per box. Based on the
consumption of the storage device’s physical capacity, more physical drive capacity can be
added later as desired.
If Exact Provisioning is selected, the volume size cannot exceed the actual physical space
available in the storage device.
Note: It is recommended to leave 20% of the physical space free for snapshots.
