• Flexible volume is  loosely coupled to its containing aggregate.
• We can create more than one flexible volume in an single aggregate.

This vol1 will be created in aggr1 with the size of 10 Tera byte

> vol create vol1 aggr1 10t

vol status :

>  vol status vol1

Vol size :

> df -Vh vol1  (V is CAPS)
