Managing Storage System Physical Disks

The Oracle VM Storage Connect Plug-In for Oracle Flash Storage Systems provides options that allow you to create, modify, and otherwise manage physical disks.

In an Oracle FS System, physical disks are referred to as LUNs.

A LUN is defined as: A logical volume that is defined over a collection of drive groups and is addressed using SCSI protocol in a SAN. An administrator defines the QoS attributes of the LUN.

Using the Oracle VM Manager, you can perform the following actions on physical disks:

You assign the storage resources, QoS attributes, and other attributes when you create the physical disk. As needs change, you can modify the storage capacity that is assigned to the physical disk.
