The driver uses a special naming tag to know whether or not it owns a \"hidden\" parent volume, so it\u0027s completely safe to change and there are no upgrade issues.  \n\nThe original reason we defaulted this to False is because it uses extra array resources.  However, there are at least two features that are made needlessly complex (deletion and expansion) with that configuration, and it would probably be both unacceptable to users and difficult to work around (though possible).
