sets have been created. See Working with a Stripe Set on page 7-5 in
Chapter 7, Working With Single-level Containers, for information on
creating a stripe set. Use the

container list

command to display

information about your containers, as in the following example. In
the example, the Type column indicates two Stripe sets identified by
container IDs 0 and 1.

To create a stripe set of stripe sets, use the

container create

mstripe

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

containers 0 and 1 are used to create a stripe set of stripe sets. The
stripe size is not specified; therefore, the stripe size is 32KB, which is
the default stripe size.

HPN0> container create mstripe 0 1

Executing: container create mstripe 0 1

Container 0 created

After running the

container create mstripe

command, use

the

container list

command to display information about the

stripe set of stripe sets, as in the following example. In the example,
the Type column indicates a top-level Stripe set whose container ID
is 0, and two underlying stripe sets whose container IDs are 63 and
62

. (Containers 63 and 62 are hidden containers.) These three

containers make up the stripe set of stripe sets. The Total Size
column indicates that the stripe set of stripe sets (container ID 0) is
400MB

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

stripe sets (container IDs 63 and 62). The Stripe Size column
indicates that the size of each stripe is 32KB (kilobytes).
