EZ provisioning is a simple method of provisioning that is available only in Unisphere for metro node. EZ provisioning creates a virtual volume with a one-to-one mapping to a selected storage volume. Use EZ provisioning to create a virtual volume that uses the entire capacity of the storage volume.
In EZ provisioning, you select storage arrays and define how you want them to be used, protected, and presented to hosts. To provision storage using EZ provisioning, do the following:
Register initiators that access metro node storage.
Create storage views that include virtual volumes, initiators, and metro node ports to control host access to the virtual volumes.
Select the storage array and storage volumes to create virtual volumes.
The Unisphere for metro node Online Help provides more information on provisioning storage using EZ provisioning.
NOTE:In the metro node CLI, you can use the
storage-tool compose command to create a virtual-volume on top of the specified storage-volumes, building all intermediate extents, local, and distributed devices as necessary. The
CLI Reference Guide for metro node provides more details on the use of this command.
