Setting the Size of Volumes Created with Auto-Carving
You can use auto-carving to divide units larger than 1 TB into multiple volumes. You control the size of the volumes to be created by setting the carve size (referred to as carving factor in 3BM). The carve size can be between 1 TB (1024 GB) and 32 TB (32768 GB); the default is 2 TB.
When you change this policy, it applies to units you create in the future. Existing units will not be affected.
To set the carve size in 3DM 2

1 | Choose Management > Controller Settings from the menu bar in 3DM 2.

2 | In the Other Controller Settings section at the bottom of the screen, in the Carve Size field, enter the size you want (between 1024 GB and 32768 GB) to use and click Submit.

The page refreshes, and a message at the top confirms the change you have made.
