HP StorageWorks XP10000 Disk Array - Manual (Page 194)

• Normal volume-setting information table: On the upper right of the pane, displays detailed
information about the CVS volumes to be initialized.
• Parity Group: Number of the VDEV to be initialized. The VDEV number indicates the parity
group where the VDEV belongs. For example, if VDEV number 1-1-(1) appears, the VDEV
belongs to parity group number 1-1.
NOTE:
If a VDEV number starts with E (for example, E1-1-(1)), the VDEV belongs to a parity group that
consists of one or more external LUs.
NOTE:
If a VDEV number starts with V (for example, V1-1-(1)), the VDEV belongs to a parity group that
consists of one or more virtual volumes (V-VOLs).
• No.: Setting number of the CVS volume to be initialized.
• Emulation: Emulation type of the CVS volume to be initialized.
• Capacity: Capacity of the CVS volume to be initialized in either MB for open-system volumes
or cylinders (Cyl) for mainframe volumes.
• CU:LDEV: CU and LDEV numbers for the CVS volume to be initialized. The default is blank.
NOTE:
If an LDEV number ends with # (for example, 00:01#), the LDEV is an external LU. For more
information about external LUs, see the HP StorageWorks External Storage XP user guide .
• Select LDEV No. area: Used to set LDEV numbers for the CVS volume to be initialized.
• Select CU No.: CU number. The default is CU 00. The LDEV number settings for the selected
CU number appear in the Select LDEV No. table.
• Interval: When selecting more than one volume, used to set the interval between the LDEV
numbers to be assigned to the newly created volumes. The default value is 0. When you select
0, consecutive LDEV numbers are assigned.
NOTE:
The value you specify as the interval between LDEV numbers counts only available LDEV numbers
and skips those that are not selectable.
• Select LDEV No. table: Displays the LDEV number settings for the CU number selected in
Select CU No. Gray indicates LDEV numbers that are not selectable, white indicates unused
LDEV numbers, and blue indicates available LDEV numbers. You can select an LDEV number
from the white LDEV numbers in the table. When you set the LDEV number, that LDEV number
becomes available and changes to blue.
NOTE:
LDEV numbers that are not selectable may be already in use or already assigned to the other
emulation group (grouped by 32 LDEV numbers) (see Table 38 ).
NOTE:
If an LDEV number ends with # (for example, 00:01#), the LDEV is an external LU. For more
information about external LUs, see the HP StorageWorks External Storage XP user guide .
