Hi All,

Thank you so much for your reply so far.

Sorry, I am new to UEFI so I think I couldn't quite understand it clearly.
Is it possible to explain with an example about how to implement
volume concept in UEFI using the EDK2 application?

If there are some references available then it will be good to follow.

Thanks,
Pintu
