why is the requirement to convert "thick" pool LUNs to thin LUNs when using VNX Snapshots ? I have Oracle DBs that are not necessarily thin friendly so we have been using "thick" LUNs.

I don't understand what you just wrote. Are you saying thin LUNs have specific "characteristics" that are prerequisite for VNX snapshots ?

are there cases where you would recommend for someone to use SnapView and not VNX Snapshots ?

thanks, does the entire "thick" lun gets converted to "indirect" or only portions of the LUN where writes occur ?
