A layout name must be supported by the pool
Storage Spaces chooses a virtual-disk layout through a resiliency setting. The familiar Windows settings are Simple, Mirror, and Parity, but a particular pool or provider can expose only a subset and can impose additional limits. This result therefore concerns the compatibility of the requested layout with the chosen pool, not merely a spelling or UI problem.
How to diagnose it
- Enumerate the resiliency settings available to the actual pool before selecting one in automation.
- Check the requested data-copy and physical-disk-redundancy values together with the layout; a valid setting can still reject incompatible overrides.
- Do not replace a resilient layout with Simple merely to bypass this status unless the resulting loss of fault tolerance is explicitly acceptable.
