Size
Enter a number with up to one decimal place, in units of gigabytes. Values of 0.1 or larger can be specified.
Number
Clicking <Add> will display the [Disk Definitions] dialog, and then specify the number of disks to add. Specify a number 1 or larger.

Select from the following items.
Automatic assignment
Select a suitable virtual storage resource from those registered in the appropriate storage pool. Create the specified size of disk resources, and allocate them to the L-Server. Set [Automatic] for the default value.
Note
When there are storage pools with and without Thin Provisioning attributes configured that have the same priority, the storage pool that will be given priority is decided based on definition files. For details on definition files, refer to "C.1 Definition Files Commonly Shared when Creating Virtual L-Servers" in the "Setup Guide CE".
If dynamic LUN mirroring has been set in the virtual storage, a volume is also created on the ETERNUS storage in the remote site specified in the definition file. If the ETERNUS storage in the remote site has been detected by Resource Orchestrator, it will be detected as a disk resource that was prepared beforehand, but do not register it to the storage pool.
Storage pool
Select a virtual storage resource registered in the specified storage pool. Create the specified size of disk resources, and allocate them to the L-Server.
Virtual storage
Displays virtual storage resources such as RAID groups or aggregates as a list.
Select from the displayed virtual storage resources.
Create the specified size of disk resources from the specified virtual storage resource, and allocate them to the L-Server.
When using the virtual storage resource on which the Thin Provisioning attributes are configured, the disk resource can be created specifying a size exceeding the actual disk space.
