In addition, when you highlight a SAN or NAS Resource, you will see a
GUID
field in the right-hand pane.
The GUID (Global Unique Identifier) is the permanent identifier for this virtual
device. The virtual ID,
SANDisk-00002
, is not. You should make note of the
GUID, because, in the event of a disaster, this identifier will be important if you
need to rebuild your system and import this disk.

that will be grouped together for snapshot synchronization purposes. When
one drive in the group is to be replicated or backed up, the entire group will be
snapped together to maintain a consistent image.
