Dear Mate,

How to check block size in 3PAR and can we change block size?

As per my understanding, the block size is 16 KiB, so can it be changed and what is the block size for FPVV, TDVV, TPVV ?

Query: How to check block size in 3PAR and can we change block size ?

Hello @Dsinghp2002,

3PAR uses the fixed block size of 16KiB. It doesn't change with the VV types (FPVV, TDVV, TPVV). And it can not be changed as well.

Hello @Dsinghp2002,

I am not sure about the context of this screenshot where they mentioned about the 'pages size'. But in 3PAR, the block size is 16KiB. Please let me know if that answers your query. And you are welcome if you have any more queries.
