Disk storage units in storage lifecycle policies
Figure: Storage lifecycle policies and disk storage units referencing disk pools is an example of how storage lifecycle policies can interact with volumes in a disk pool that a storage unit references.
Two backup policies are created as follows:
A backup policy named Policy_gold has a gold classification. For storage, it is configured to use an SLP named Lifecycle_Gold, which has a gold data classification.
A backup policy named Policy_silver has a silver classification. For storage, it is configured to use Any Available. That means it can use any available storage unit or any SLP that has a silver classification.
Two storage units are available to both backup policies as follows:
DSU_1 is an operation in Lifecycle_Gold and references DiskPool_A.
DSU_2 is not in an SLP and references DiskPool_A.
DiskPool_A contains three disk volumes. Both the gold and the silver images can be written to any disk volume in the pool.
