Naming Convention of Volumes
■
Naming conventions for creating volumes
The following naming conventions apply when creating volumes:
•
When creating multiple volumes, the specified "Name" and the suffix numbers "x" (serial
numbers starting with "0") are automatically added to volumes.
[Example]
•
When the volume name including the suffix number "x" has more than 16 characters, the
excess number of characters is deleted from the "Name", starting with the last character and
a suffix number "~x" will be added. Then, the name will contain only 16 characters.
[Example]
•
When a volume name including the suffix number already exists, the suffix number is
increased by one (+1). The suffix number is increased by one (+1) until no volume names
overlap.
