Volume Set Functions
A volume set is seen by the host system as a single logical device. It is organized in a RAID level with one or more
physical disks. RAID level refers to the level of data performance and protection of a volume set. A volume set
capacity can consume all or a portion of the disk capacity available in a RAID set. Multiple volume sets can exist on a
group of disks in a RAID set. Additional volume sets created in a specified RAID set will reside on all the physical
disks in the RAID set. Thus each volume set on the RAID set will have its data spread evenly across all the disks in the
RAID set.
The following is the volume set features for the SAS RAID controller.
•
Volume sets of different RAID levels may coexist on the same RAID set and up to 128 volume sets per
controller.
•
Up to 128 volume sets can be created in a RAID set.
•
The maximum addressable size of a single volume set is not limited to 2TB, because the controller is capable
of 64-bit LBA mode. However the operating system itself may not be capable of addressing more than 2TB.
