    Xsan 2: No Limits (kinda')

    Xsan 2 does remove some of the limitations that you encountered with Xsan 1. But not a ton of them.  There are still a few limitations, most of which can easily be worked around. The first is in the number of storage pools that can be in a single volume, which is 512. The second is the number of LUNs that can be in a storage pool, which is 32. This isn’t to say that you can actually put 512 X 32 LUNs (or 16384 LUNs) in a volume because you can’t.  A volume can actually only have 512 LUNs, whether or not you split them into multiple storage pools.…
