	A storage pool is a logical grouping of disks into a ''pool'' from which volumes (LUNs) and network shares can be provisioned. QuantaStor has support for ZFS, and ~~XFS based storage~~ pools. ~~ZFS based~~ storage ~~pools are the most powerful~~ and the ~~most versatile but XFS based~~ storage ~~pools have some performance advantages for some applications~~. One a pool is provisioned you can provision ''storage volumes'' and ''network shares'' using available space in the storage pool.		A storage pool is a logical grouping of disks into a ''pool'' from which volumes (LUNs) and network shares can be provisioned. QuantaStor has support for ZFS Scale-Up and Ceph Scale-out pools. Once a pool is provisioned you can provision storage volumes and network shares using available space in the storage pool. One a pool is provisioned you can provision ''storage volumes'' and ''network shares'' using available space in the storage pool.

	Every item you see in the QuantaStor Manager web interface is internally stored as an 'object' in the scale-out grid management system. All objects have a name and a unique ID (UUID) and several other properties. As an example a Storage Volume is a block device and is accessible via iSCSI so 'iqn' is a property of the Storage Volume. Details like 'iqn' can be viewed via the ''Properties''' pane on the right side of the manager screen or by right-clicking on the object and selecting '''Properties''' from the menu. The resulting Properties window also contains a '''Security''' tab and a '''Tags''' section for assigning user defined custom key/value pairs to objects. Within the security tab, administrators can choose to limit who has access to the particular object.
