Storage system limits

Use this information to determine system limits for a ThinkAgile CP storage block.

All recommended limits listed below are per Storage Block. Adding multiple Storage Blocks within a federated storage pool will generally increase these limits linearly, excluding VM specific limits such as VM disk limit. These recommended limits are based on system stability, hard-coded system limits, as well as time limits to complete each single action (for example, backup/disk creation).

Component	Limit description
Inactive blocks, disks, backups, or base images (per storage block)	1 million
Active storage disks exported to VMs (per storage block)	10,000
Disks per VM	200
Backups per VM	Limited to the total number of blocks (1 million) and storage block capacity per storage block
Disaster recovery backups per VM	Limited to the total number of blocks (1 million) and storage block capacity per storage block
