This information is documented in the " Best Practices for Fast, Simple Capacity Allocation with Symmetrix Virtual Provisioning Technical Note" available on Powerlink on page 26. I am including the content verabtim below. Also remember that the maximum number of devices in a VMAX is 64,000. This includes all devices in the Symmetrix.

Thin pool restrictions

The number of pools that can be configured in a Symmetrix array is 512. This is the total number of pools, including Virtual Provisioning thin pools, SRDF/A Delta Set Extension (DSE) pools, or TimeFinder/Snap pools.

Thin and data device limits within a pool

There is no limit to the number of thin devices that can be bound to a thin pool or data devices that can be added to a thin pool.
