8.1.1 Volume Group Management
Volume Group (VG) is created by joining at least one disk, which can be physical disk or
RAID disk(s). Logical Volumes are created under the Volume Group.
proNASVG is the system default VG. It must be created first in order to use the NAS
system. To create the proNASVG, it is necessary to join at least one “New” or
“Non_Initialized” disk into proNASVG.
Admin can create other VG by joining other new or “Non_Initialized” disk, create or
remove LV in this VG, join any new disk, remove any disk and reset the VG.
NOTE: If the Disk List in Volume Manager does not show any RAID
disk (for example: /dev/sda) but a Raid Set and Volume Set has
been created already, it is necessary to restart the proNAS system.
Go to System Manager, select Reboot tab, and click Reboot Now
button. Then re-login to NAS administration page.
