To create a volume set of volume sets, use the

container create

mvolume

command, as in the following example. In the example,

containers 0 and 1 are used to create a volume set of volume sets.

HPN0> container create mvolume 0 1

Executing: container create mvolume 0 1

Container 0 created

After running the

container create mvolume

command, use

the

container list

command to display information about the

volume set of volume sets, as in the following example. In the
example, the Type column indicates a top-level Volume set, whose
container ID is 0, and two underlying Volume sets, whose container
IDs are 63 and 62. (Containers 63 and 62 are hidden containers.)
These three containers make up the volume set of volume sets. The
Total Size

column indicates that the volume set of volume sets is

300MB

(megabytes), which is the total size of the two underlying

volume sets.

Understanding a Volume Set of Volume Sets in a NetWare Environment

When creating a multilevel container of volume sets on a NetWare
server, you specify the container IDs for the containers from which
you want to create the multilevel volume set. If NetWare is using
any of these containers, an appropriate message displays. This
message indicates that one or more of the containers you specified is
in use by NetWare. The message directs you to remove any NetWare
volumes and partitions from these containers. You can then create a
multilevel container of volume sets on a NetWare server.
