This message is issued during the define or update of a storage pool when a SHRED value of zero has been found with a storage pool in the storage pool hierachy.

The server allows this type of operation, but the administrator needs to be aware that if data is stored or moved to the affected storage pool, the data cannot be shredded after deletion.

When it is issued during the DEFINE command, it indicates that the storage pool definition is being configured with a non zero SHRED value, however other storage pools being specified on the definition (for example, the Next or Reclaim or Copy storage pool parameters) have a SHRED value of zero.

When issued during the UPDATE command, it indicates the specified storage pool may be altering the SHRED value from non zero to zero or that the specified Copy, Next or Reclaim storage pool has a SHRED value zero. Such configurations may result in data to become non shreddable if data from the primary random access storage pool is moved to one of the storage pools with a zero SHRED value.
