Copy CPG is consumed the capacity Storage?

[PutraDerry22]

Dear All,

I'm very new to this Storage 3PAR, so want I want to ask is

are the copy CPG also consumed the capacity of the Storage? because I already calculate before when I create a new vv that it is will only used only until 80% of the capacity in full used vv, but the space is reaching more than 80%. because before I never use the Copy CPG and now I'm using the Copy CPG is it the one who is increasing the capacity used from the Storage?

Hi PutraDerry22,

Yes, The Copy CPG can consume storage capacity.
A Copy CPG is used to store Snapshots and Virtual Copies of a Virtual Volume in HPE 3PAR storage.
A Snapshot or Virtual Copy of a Virtual Volume (VV) is stored in the Copy CPG when it is created. Data can be copied at a point in time without having to duplicate the entire volume.

Hope this helps.
