HP Surestore NAS 8000 Direct Attach Solution Integration Manual

10 Network and Storage Planning
The HP NAS 8000 system also supports multiple LUNs and Volume Groups. This configuration
is more flexible for future upgrades by allowing you to upgrade to an HA configuration without
having to reconfigure storage or restoring data from backups.
For maximum flexibility in the use of your storage space, do not create large numbers of LUNs
or volume groups.You can divide volume groups into separate file volumes to segregate
storage for separate users, departments or purposes. There is no need to create a large
number of LUNs or volume groups for creating user partitions.
