Add or remove storage volumes from the storage volume group.

In QuantaStor, the "Add/Remove Volumes to/from Storage Volume Group" feature is used to manage the composition of a storage volume group by adding or removing individual storage volumes from it.

A storage volume group in QuantaStor represents a logical grouping of storage volumes within a storage pool. It allows you to organize and manage related volumes together, which can be beneficial for various purposes such as data segregation, performance optimization, or resource allocation.

The purpose of the "Add/Remove Volumes to/from Storage Volume Group" function is to modify the membership of a storage volume group by including or excluding specific volumes as needed.

Adding volumes to a storage volume group involves including additional storage volumes within the group. This action allows those volumes to be managed collectively, enabling centralized control and streamlined management of related volumes.

On the other hand, removing volumes from a storage volume group entails excluding specific volumes from the group. This action is useful when you want to reassign or reallocate volumes to different groups, or if you no longer need the volumes to be associated with the current group.

By using the "Add/Remove Volumes to/from Storage Volume Group" feature, you can adjust the composition of volume groups to align with your storage requirements and organizational preferences.

It's important to note that adding or removing volumes from a storage volume group does not delete the volumes themselves or their data. Instead, it controls their membership within the group and the way they are managed and organized.

Before adding or removing volumes from a storage volume group, it's recommended to review the specific steps and guidelines provided by QuantaStor. Understanding the implications of these actions can help ensure the desired configuration and prevent unintended consequences, such as data loss or disruption of storage operations.
