An industry customer has purchased several Huawei flash storage devices for service deployment.

The HyperSnap feature in Huawei flash storage systems, such as OceanStor Dorado, enables point-in-time snapshots for data protection. The *HCIP-Storage V5.5 Training Material (Module 2: Flash Storage Technologies)* states: “To create snapshots using HyperSnap, the storage pool containing the source LUNs must have sufficient available capacity to store snapshot metadata and copy-on-write (COW) data. If the storage pool lacks free space, snapshot creation for a protection group will fail.” This aligns with the question’s statement that a lack of available capacity in the storage pool prevents snapshot creation for a protection group, making the statement true. The material emphasizes that capacity issues are a common cause of snapshot failures, as snapshots require additional space for incremental changes.
