To create a volume set, use the

container create volume

command, as in the following example. In the example, the volume
set 0 is created on SCSI device (2,01,0) from 100MB (megabytes) of
freespace. The container’s raw cache is enabled, and the label Venus
is specified.

HPN0> container create volume /cache=TRUE /label=Venus

((2,01,0), 100M)

Executing: container create volume /cache=TRUE /label=Venus

((CHANNEL=2,ID=1,LUN=0),104,857,600 )

Container 0 created

After running the

container create volume

command, use the

container list

command to display information about the

volume set, as in the following example. In the example, the Num
Label

column indicates the container ID 0 and the container label

Venus

. The Type column indicates a Volume set. The Total Size

Understanding Volume Set Creation in a NetWare
Environment

If you created a volume set on a NetWare server, you must run the

list devices

command on the NetWare console and then create

the necessary NetWare disk partitions and volumes.

For information on how to create partitions and volumes, see the
appropriate NetWare documentation.

For information on how to display the NetWare console remotely on
the NT client running FAST, see the Flexible Array Storage Tool User’s
Guide
