Working with Multi-level Containers

display the stripe size of a stripe set of RAID-5 sets using the

container list

command. See Understanding How to Create a

Stripe Set of RAID-5 Sets for information on the

container list

command.

In the following example, the

container create mstripe

command with the /stripe switch creates a stripe set of RAID-5 sets
with a stripe size of 64 KB (kilobytes).

HPN0> container create mstripe /stripe=64K 0 1

Executing: container create mstripe /stripe_size=65,536 0 1

Container 0 created

Specifying a Label for a Stripe Set of RAID-5 Sets

The

container label

attribute identifies a name assigned to a

container. Note that this label is not the label that displays in
Windows Explorer and Disk Administrator. You can specify a label
while creating a stripe set of RAID-5 sets or at a later time using the

container set label

command. See Displaying and Setting a

Container Label in Chapter 6, Working with Container Attributes, for a
description of the

container set label

command.

In the following example, the

container create mstripe

command with the /label switch creates a stripe set of RAID-5 sets
with the label Saturn.

HPN0> container create mstripe /label=Saturn 0 1

Executing: container create mstripe /label="Saturn" 0 1

Container 0 created

Understanding How to Create a Stripe Set of RAID-5 Sets

This section provides an example that describes how to create a
stripe set of RAID-5 sets.

Before creating a stripe set of RAID-5 sets, be sure that the RAID-5
sets that are to be striped have been created. See Working with a
RAID-5 Set
in Chapter 7, Working With Single-level Containers, for
information on creating a RAID-5 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
RAID-5

sets that reside on containers 0 and 1.

HPN0> container list

Executing: container list
