Volume Set Function
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 r a w 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.
