Each storage repository has a predefined structure, which is visible in Oracle VM Manager, and maps to the directory structure of the underlying physical storage. The directory structure is listed in Table 4.1, “Storage Repository Directory Structure”.
The directories listed in Table 4.1, “Storage Repository Directory Structure” are subdirectories of a storage repository file system. On disk they are, in fact, located under the path:
/OVS/Repositories/repository_id/...
