A SAN (Storage Area Network) is a network specifically dedicated to the task of transporting data for storage and retrieval. SAN architectures are alternatives to storing data on disks directly attached to servers or storing data on Network Attached Storage (NAS) devices which are connected through general purpose networks.

Can you please expand your question a bit?

Are you on about individual LUN allocation, drive allocation to a logical volume etc..?
