Add Volume Dialog Box

Use the Add Volume dialog box to view the external volume parameter or LDEV number that is configured to the LDEVs in the external volume. The Add Volume dialog box automatically opens when you click the Add Volume (Manual) command in the Volume Operation window.

The Add Volume dialog box shows the list of the external volumes that can be mapped to the local storage system. To map the external volume, you need to configure the external volume parameter and the LDEV number. The parameter that you have not configured is shown with a hyphen (-) .

To configure the parameter, click the external volume with the parameter that you have not configured, and open the other dialog boxes from the Add Volume dialog box. Delete the external volume if the Add Volume dialog box contains the external volume that you do not want to map.
