storage area networks.

through the Windows OS and applications.

LDEV

Logical device. An LDEV is created when a RAID group is divided into

 

pieces according to a selected host emulation mode (that is, OPEN-3,

 

OPEN-8, OPEN-9, etc.). The number of resulting LDEVs depends on the

 

selected emulation mode. The term LDEV is often used synonymously

 

with the term volume.

LUN

number, port ID, and LDEV ID to a RAID group. The size of the LUN is

 

determined by the emulation mode of the LDEV, and the number of

 

LDEVs associated with the LUN. For example, a LUN associated with two

 

OPEN-3 LDEVs has a size of 4,693 MB.
