Not yet for DSS-G unfortunately. However even if they are, it means
someone thought it was an acceptable idea at some point.

And on ESS you get a fix number of vdisks per enclosure. To avoid
having a 1PB or bigger vdisk. That makes it as you mentioned … not
manageable.


The issue I have is what I want to do is reserve a set number of disks per tray/enclosure as spares. Ok not actual disks but the capacity of a disk as a spare. As of last February that was not possible, I had to mess about creating and destroying the vdisks till I got where I wanted to be. What a palaver that was.

I was also super unimpressed that the scripts throw a wobbler because my two DSS-G servers where named gpfs1 and gpfs2 which was not a problem on 4.2.x and not actually documented anywhere.
