Creating a Volume Through SMI-S
There are two extrinsic methods required to create a volume. The CreateSetting method in
TPD_StorageCapabilities class generates the settings that are used to create the Volume,
and the CreateOrModifyElementFromStoragePool method in
TPD_StorageConfigurationService class creates, modifies or grows the volume with the
StorageSetting instance created by the CreateSetting method. The
ReturnToStoragePool method is used to delete a volume.
Additionally, you can use the intrinsic method with the TPD_StorageSetting class. The
ModifyInstance method is used to modify the StorageSetting properties that are returned
by the CreateSetting method.
A new method TPD_CreateOrModifyElementFromStoragePools can also be used to create,
modify, and grow virtual volumes. This method is similar to
CreateOrModifyElementFromStoragePool, but instead of the InPool parameter, there is
