Understanding disk layout

Question

Just trying to get a better handle on how my clariion CS4-120 disk is layed out.  Does anyone have any good docs that show/diagram out the different layers when it comes the (pools/volumes/disk/meta/slice/strip)  just trying to understand a bit more about the emc world, and allow me to help troubleshoot performance a bit better moving forward.

These two manuals are good Managing Celerra Volumes and File Systems with Automatic Volume Management Managing Celerra Volumes and File Systems Manually

Run this script /nas/tools/.whereisfs This will give you information about your file systems and how they are laid-out on the back-end clarion.
