Once provisioned, neither Mayastor Disk Pools nor Mayastor Volumes can be re-sized. A Mayastor Pool can have only a single block device as a member. Mayastor Volumes are exclusively thick-provisioned.

## Snapshots and Clones

Mayastor has no snapshot or cloning capabilities.

@tiagolobocastro @Abhinandan-Purkait should we add a limitation that "currently snapshots and restores are not supported on multi-replica volumes"?

It's already on the snapshots section but I think it should also be here yes

Yeah it's already a part of the snapshots section. Yeah it should be a part of limitations, as most folks visit the limitations sections before diving in.


## Volumes are "Highly Durable" but without multipathing are not "Highly Available"

Mayastor Volumes can be configured \(or subsequently re-configured\) to be composed of 2 or more "children" or "replicas"; causing synchronously mirrored copies of the volumes's data to be maintained on more than one worker node and Disk Pool. This contributes additional "durability" at the persistence layer, ensuring that viable copies of a volume's data remain even if a Disk Pool device is lost.
