Creating V-VOLs for Thin Image S-VOLs

Depending on the types of pairs with which you are working, there are two
options for creating a V-VOL for a Thin Image S-VOL. For pairs with the
snapshot attribute (snapshot pairs) for which the cascade attribute is enabled
(cascaded pairs) or for clone pairs, create a DP-VOL. You can use a non-
cascaded snapshot tree (using only root volumes and leaf volumes) even
when you create snapshot pairs that are cascaded. For information about
creating a DP-VOL, see the Provisioning Guide for your storage system. For
snapshot pairs for which the cascade attribute is disabled, create a Thin
Image V-VOL.
Before you begin
