logical device (LDEV)
An individual logical data volume (on multiple drives in a RAID
configuration) in the storage system. An LDEV may or may not contain
any data and may or may not be defined to any hosts. Each LDEV has a
unique identifier or “address” within the storage system composed of the
logical disk controller (LDKC) number, control unit (CU) number, and
LDEV number. The LDEV IDs within a storage system do not change. An
LDEV formatted for use by mainframe hosts is called a logical volume
image (LVI). An LDEV formatted for use by open-system hosts is called
a logical unit (LU).
