LU Pools are typically used to allocate a collection of LUs
for use by a particular group -- for example, marketing. LU
Pools can be secured so that only the members of a specified
group can access the LUs in a Pool.
The LUs specified as part of the LU Pool must not be previously configured as Dedicated LUs or included as part of another LU Pool. The LU Pool is specified with the LU Pool name, and the
LUs in the Pool are allocated on a first-come-first-serve basis. Page 2 of 3
