A LUN becomes a SAN File System volume when an administrator adds it to a storage pool. It is automatically assigned a system-generated label that identifies it as a SAN File System volume. An administrator must also give the volume a name that is unique within all the volumes used by a SAN File System cluster.
You can perform the following tasks for volumes and LUNs:
