What is the maximum number of supported virtual volumes for VS2 Metro?

The maximum number of supported virtual volumes for VS2 Metro is set at 8,000. This limit is defined based on the architecture and capabilities of the VPLEX system, ensuring optimal performance and management of resources. In the context of VS2 Metro environments, this figure reflects the engineered design that provides a balance between scalability and system performance, allowing for efficient management of workloads while maintaining the integrity and service levels of the data.

Understanding this limit helps administrators plan their virtualized storage environments effectively, ensuring they do not exceed the supported volume count, which could lead to potential performance degradation or resource contention. This aspect of capacity planning is crucial for maintaining a reliable and efficient storage infrastructure in Metro configurations.
