Every Storwize V7000 unit of single processing is a node canister, which is also known as a node. The two nodes within their canisters make an I/O group that is attached to the SAN fabric. Volumes are related to a specific group of I/O logical disks, available in the systems.

The I/O group nodes deliver entrance to the I/O group volumes. Upon performing of an application server to the volume of I/O, the nodes of the volumes can be accessed. In 00ar004, the node canisters are linked to the internal drives with the enclosures. Hence, as a result, one or more RAID (Redundant Arrays of Independent Disks) are created. They are also acknowledged as MDisks (managed disks) present within arrays. Storage pools are a group of data collected from MDisks, with every volume creating one or two copies of the same volume, in which each copy of volume consists of a physical copy independently.
