MSA Space question

Please see attachment ,

i have 2 pools with 1.8 TB disks, one is 12 disks deep, one is 10 disks deep.

i'm trying to see if i can create another virtual volume on pool A and how big is safe to do so.

having trouble with the over committment ability. both pools have over committment disabled.

Sorry for blurry picture.

Hi there,

You would be able to see the maximum Volume size that you could use when you click on the Create virtual Volume Option.

Usually the safe size to create a new Volume is the uncommited space within a particular Pool.

Cheers! Regards
