>This chapter discusses how to configure cluster storage containers (referred to throughout
this chapter as "cluster containers"), a feature provided by the EVMS Cluster Segment
Manager (CSM).</P
><P
>Disks that are physically accessible from all of the nodes of the cluster can be
grouped together as a single manageable entity. EVMS storage objects can then be
created using storage from these containers.</P
><P
>Ownership is assigned to a container to make the container either private or shared.
A container that is owned by any one node of the cluster is called a private container.
EVMS storage objects and storage volumes created using space from a private
container are accessible from only the owning node.</P
><P
>A container that is owned by all the nodes in a cluster is called a shared container.
EVMS storage objects and storage volumes created using space from a shared
container are accessible from all nodes of the cluster simultaneously.</P
><P
>EVMS provides the tools to convert a private container to a shared container, and
a shared container to a private container. EVMS also provides the flexibility to
change the ownership of a private container from one cluster node to another
cluster node.</P
