42、trongly recommends a 1-to-1 relationship between the RG and Parity Group to avoid any potential performance problems or recovery issues:1. During a failure condition, there may be an impact to multiple workloads sharing the RAID Group, even if the LUN resides within the Parity Group that is not spar
43、ing out an HDD.2. The space is concatenated, which means that a LUN may span the two Parity Groups within the RAID Group, thereby increasing the possibility of parity generation overhead.40LU ConfigurationRG0RG1LU 0LU 1LU 2LU 3 LUs are slices from the user data area of a RAID Group 3 LUs form RG0 1
