How to check whether the Thin devices are having pre-allocated volume from the pool..

I have few Thin devices in my pool where it is not assigned to any host. Need to know whether when it is created whether a Pre-allocation capacity was done. Is there a way to check that.

Hi Krish,

You can run symcfg -sid xx show -thin -pool -detail

Check the Pool Allocated section in "Pool Bound thin devices:" It will show if tdevs are preallocated or not? By default, each tdev takes 12 track from pool.

Hi Sathish,

Little bit of calculation and logic you may need:

Whatever is Pool allocated is your preallocated size if its more than Pool written tracks

Hope this helps...

As you are trying to check pool allocation for few THIN devices and you believe that FEW devices are in range, below mentioned command will ALSO work.

#symcfg -sid 1234 list -tdev -range 07BE:07C1
