Enter Volume Name
In the Enter Volume Name field, enter a name for the NAS Volume. The NAS Volume Name
must be alphanumeric, not have any spaces and be between one and 63 characters in
length.
Enter Volume Size
In the Enter Volume Size field, enter the size desired for the NAS Volume. The field is
measured in Gigabytes (GB).
Select Thin or Exact Provisioning
Select the type of provisioning desired.
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.
