Host volume concepts

Host volumes overview

The replication manager uses the term host volumes in two ways: broadly and narrowly.
When used broadly, as in the phrase "select the host volumes content pane", the term refers to all types
of host storage resources that are discovered by the replication manager on an enabled host. These
resources include the following major categories:
• Entire disks, partitions, slices, and
• Host volume groups. See
• Host disk devices. See
When used narrowly, as in the phrase "select the host volumes tab", the term refers only to the category of
physical disks, partitions, slices, and logical volumes.
The properties of host volumes, host volume groups, and host disk devices are automatically discovered
by the replication manager and are maintained in the replication manager's database. See

storage is located, either in the SAN or on the host proper.
SAN-based host volumes
With SAN-based host volumes, the underlying physical storage is in an HP StorageWorks storage system
and is organized as virtual disks. When a virtual disk is presented to a host, the host identifies the virtual
disk (LUN) as a specific host volume.
