Create the MVG volume
The MSDP volume group (MVG) is an MSDP capability to build the volume groups in the storage layer on top of individual MSDP storage servers. One volume group is represented to NetBackup as a virtual volume, and this virtual volume is called MVG volume.
For more information about MSDP volume group (MVG) see NetBackup Deduplication Guide.
