Using RDR for Fault Tolerance
4-4
Express5800/320Ma: System Administrator’s Guide
ftSMC reports the capacity of physical disks and virtual disks in the Capacity property
in two different locations:
•
The physical disk Capacity property appears in the ftSMC details pane under I/O
Enclosure - 10, Storage Enclosure - 40, Slot - n, Disk - n.
•
The virtual disk Capacity property appears in the ftSMC details pane under
Logical Disk Information, RDR Virtual Disk - n. The virtual disk value is slightly
lower than the physical disk value because the virtual disk value is reduced by the
space reserved for metadata.
N O T E
Automatic virtual disk expansion does not work on
dynamic virtual disks; that is, RDR virtual disks that have
been converted to dynamic disks by Windows Disk
