A notation appears across the top of the window to indicate that the volume has been
initialized, and the color of the VDEV icon that you manipulated in the tree view changes from
red to blue.

The setting changes are not yet implemented in the storage system. You cannot manipulate
VDEVs denoted by blue icons until you do either of the following, but you can initialize
additional VLL volumes in VDEVs denoted by red icons:

Click Apply or Cancel.

Right-click blue LDEVs, and select Reset.

While an LDEV is being formatted, a progress window opens. The percentage of completion
displayed might be 0% or 99%. This completion percentage could remain visible while the
format operation is in progress.

If desired, you can make settings on the Make Volume function (see

“Re-creating the CVs After

Initializing the VDEV (Make Volume Operation)” (page 76)

) before clicking Apply. If you click

Apply after making settings on both the Volume Initialize function and the Make Volume
function, the settings on these functions will be applied simultaneously to the storage system.

Click OK to complete the process.

When the Volume Initialize operation starts, a notation appears across the bottom of the
window to indicate the progress and to indicate completion at the end of the operation.

When the Volume Initialize function or the Make Volume function is performed, the alias
information that is set to the recreated LDEV by these operations is also deleted. If you set the
alias to the LDEV, you must migrate the alias information to another LDEV before the Volume
Initialize function or the Make Volume function is performed, or you must reconfigure the alias
after the Volume Initialize function or the Make Volume function is performed.
