A LUN is a logical unit of storage that is presented to a host as a SCSI device. A LUN is composed of one or more RAID extents, which are the smallest units of storage that can be allocated to a LUN. A RAID extent is a slice of a RAID group that is used to store user data and parity information. The size of a RAID extent depends on the RAID type and the drive type of the RAID group. For example, a RAID 5 extent on a SAS drive is 128 MB, while a RAID 6 extent on a NL-SAS drive is 256 MB. The LUN is partitioned into slices that match the size of the RAID extents, and each slice is mapped to a RAID extent from a RAID group in the storage pool. The LUN slices are distributed across multiple RAID groups to improve performance and availability. References:

The snapshot option that is set automatically when a pool is configured is the Pool Automatic Deletion Policy. This option determines how the system handles the deletion of snapshots when the pool reaches a certain threshold of capacity utilization. The user can choose between three policies: Never Delete, Delete Oldest, or Delete Lowest Priority. The Total Pool Consumption and the Snapshot Pool Consumption are not snapshot options, but rather metrics that show the amount of pool space consumed by the pool data and the snapshots respectively.

The maximum number of drives on a traditional RAID group depends on the RAID type and the drive type. For RAID 5 and RAID 6, the maximum number of drives is 16 for all drive types. For RAID 1/0, the maximum number of drives is 32 for SAS and NL-SAS drives, and 16 for SSD drives. References: Dell EMC Unity: Best Practices Guide2, page 17.
