Can anybody explain to me the difference between a mount point and a drive?
While reading the documentation
on defining a stgpool of type "copy" I read:

"Each process needs a mount point for copy storage pool volumes, and if the
device type is not FILE, each process also needs a drive."

But when I go to the ADMIN guide I read:

"When a storage pool has only one mount point (that is, just one drive). . .
"

At this point, I'm very confused.

Thanks for any light you can shed on this.
