Physical Disks | |
Physical Disks are the disk drives present in an enclosure. They are the physical, actual raw storage hard disks that comprise the array and are the "building blocks" of all data storage under RAID.
Enclosures manage physical disks as a pool of storage space out of which logical units are carved out and masked to servers. The following figure shows the screen in Veritas InfoScale Operations Manager UI where the physical disks are listed. Veritas InfoScale Operations Manager UI will represent the physical disks using the terminology you specify.
