Creating a virtual pool for replication
When you create a virtual pool, configure the size to allow for four times the anticipated size of the primary volume. This size will account for the primary volume, plus the same amount of space for each of the two internal snapshots, and possible queued replication. This is the maximum amount of space that you will need for replication. Also, for a pool on the primary system, allow additional space for other uses of the pool.
