Configuring Storage
The appliance uses storage pools to manage physical storage devices. After configuring these
pools based on physical characteristics and the desired level of data redundancy, you can
store filesystems and LUNs, collectively known as shares, in these pools. Shares, which are
contained in projects, automatically grow within the disk space allocated to the pool, and
pools can span multiple storage devices. Although there is no need to statically size shares,
you can control space usage using quotas and reservations. For more information, see
Management for Shares" on page

Creating a Storage Pool (BUI)
Storage pools store data and can be created during or after initial configuration. Pools
can contain data drives, read cache devices, and log devices. If for some reason a pool
is unconfigured, you can import it as described in
