About LUN classification

Last published : Jul 06, 2026
You can define classifications for LUNs in your data center. These LUN classifications can be used, for example, for LUN selection when migrating or provisioning storage with Storage Provisioning and Enclosure Migration Add-on.
LUN classification is available only when Storage Insight Add-on is installed and configured on Management Server.
You can classify LUNs based on one or more parameters, such as the following:
  • Array (enclosure) name
  • Whether or not the LUN is thin
  • LUN name
  • Product, for example CLARiiON
  • RAID group
  • RAID level of a LUN, for example, RAID5/6
  • Whether or not the LUN is replicated
  • Vendor
When you define classifications for LUNs, InfoScale Operations Manager stores these definitions as rules in Management Server.
In addition to defining classifications, you can assign them an order. In certain circumstances, multiple classification definitions can apply to a LUN. In such cases, InfoScale Operations Manager looks for the highest order of classification that applies and assigns it to the LUN.
