There are the following limits to the number of volumes that can be created within a group in the root class:
The number of volumes with the physical slice attributes set to "on" is limited to a maximum of 6.
Volumes with the physical slice attributes set to "off" cannot be created.
There are the following limits to the number of volumes that can be created within a group or a single disk in the local class or shared class:
You can create a maximum of 6 volumes with their physical slice attribute set to "on."
You can create a total of 1024 volumes with their physical slice attribute set to "on" or "off."
You cannot create a volume with the physical slice attribute set to "on" in a stripe group or a concatenation group.
You cannot create a volume with the physical slice attribute set to "on" in a shadow class regardless whether the physical slice is registered with the disk label.
When you perform the proxy operation per group, the number of volumes within the master group must be 400 or less.
In addition, there are the following limits to the number of volumes that can be created within a class:
For the root class, the number is limited to a maximum of 256.
For a local class, the number is limited to a maximum of 6144.
However, when groups are nested, the nested group can contain a maximum of 6144 volumes and lower level groups collectively.
