Configuring a Storage Array
client>smcli 123.45.67.89 -c "save storageArray
configuration file=
\"c:\
folder\storageArrayconfig1.scr
\";"
In this example, the name
folder
is the folder in which you choose to place
the configuration file, and
storageArrayconfig1.scr
is the name of the file.
Choose any folder and any file name. MD Storage Manager uses the file
extension
.scr
when it creates the configuration file.
Using the Create Virtual Disk Command
The
create virtualDisk
command enables you to create new virtual disks in
the storage array in three ways:
• Create a new virtual disk while simultaneously creating a new disk group to
which you assign the physical disks.
• Create a new virtual disk while simultaneously creating a new disk group to
which the MD Storage Manager software assigns the physical disks.
• Create a new virtual disk in an existing disk group.
You must have unassigned physical disks in the disk group. You do not need to
assign the entire capacity of the disk group to a virtual disk.
Creating Virtual Disks with User-Assigned Physical Disks
When you create a new virtual disk and assign the physical disks to use, the
MD Storage Manager software creates a new disk group. The RAID controller
module firmware assigns a disk group number to the new disk group. The
following syntax is the general form of the command:
create virtualDisk physicalDisks=
(
enclosureID0,slotID0...enclosureIDn,slotIDn
)
raidLevel=(0 | 1 | 5 | 6)userLabel=
"
virtualDiskName
"
[capacity=
virtualDiskCapacity
owner=(0 | 1) segmentSize=
segmentSizeValue
]
[enclosureLossProtect=(TRUE | FALSE)]
NOTE:
The
capacity
,
owner
,
segmentSize
, and
enclosureLossProtect
parameters
are optional. You can use one or all of the optional parameters as needed to help
define your configuration. You do not, however, need to use any optional
parameters.
