container Commands
Examples
Before creating a multilevel stripe set, use the
container list
command to obtain information about any existing arrays.
As the following example shows, there are two existing arrays
(mirror sets) on this controller at the time the multilevel stripe set is
created. These mirror sets were previously created with the
container create mirror
command.
AAC0>container list
Executing: container list
Num Total Oth Stripe Scsi Partition
Dr Label Type Size Ctr Size Usage C:ID:L Offset:Size
-- ----- ------ ------ --- ------ ------- ------ -------------
0 Mirror 15MB None 0:02:0 64.0KB: 15.0MB
0:02:0 15.0MB: 15.0MB
1 Mirror 15MB None 0:03:0 64.0KB: 15.0MB
0:03:0 15.0MB: 15.0MB
The following example shows how to create a multilevel stripe set
from two equally sized arrays, using the default stripe size of 64 KB.
In this example, the two equally sized arrays are mirror sets:
AAC0>container create mstripe 0 1
Executing: container create mstripe 0 1
container 0 created
On UNIX systems, the message displayed after you execute the
container create mstripe
command includes the root special
file associated with the newly created multilevel stripe set.
Use the
container list
command after using the
container
create mstripe
command to display information about the
multilevel stripe set, as in the following example:
AAC0>container list
Executing: container list
Num Total Oth Stripe Scsi Partition
Dr Label Type Size Ctr Size Usage C:ID:L Offset:Size
-- ----- ------ ------ --- ------ ------- ------ -------------
0 Stripe 30MB 0 64KB None
63 Mirror 15MB 0:02:0 64.0KB: 15.0MB
0:02:0 15.0MB: 15.0MB
62 Mirror 15MB 0:03:0 64.0KB: 15.0MB
0:03:0 15.0MB: 15.0MB
