Parameter

Description

assign to the virtual disk. Enclosure ID values are 0 to 99.
Slot ID values are 0 to 31. You must put brackets ([ ])
around the enclosure ID values and the slot ID values. Use
with the addCapacity parameter if you must specify
additional physical disks to accommodate the new size.

consistencyCheckEnabled

Turns consistency checking during a media scan on or off.
To turn consistency checking on, set to TRUE. To turn
consistency checking off, set to FALSE.

segmentSize

Amount of data (in kilobytes) that the RAID controller
module writes on a single physical disk in a virtual disk
before writing data on the next physical disk. Valid values
are 8, 16, 32, 64, 128, 256, or 512. For information
about the segmentSize parameter, see Using The Auto
Configure Command.

userLabel

Specifies the new name to give an existing virtual disk.
You must put quotation marks (" ") around the new virtual
disk name.

preReadRedundancyCheck

The setting to check the consistency of RAID redundancy
data on the stripes during read operations. Do not use this
operation for nonredundant virtual disks, for example
RAID Level 0. To check redundancy consistency, set this
parameter to TRUE. For no stripe checking, set this
parameter to FALSE.

accessVirtualDisk

Specifies the logical unit number for the access virtual
disk. The logical unit number is the only property that you
can set for the access virtual disk.

NOTE: If you specify the accessVirtualDisk
parameter, the only property that you can set is the
logicalUnitNumber.

logicalUnitNumber

Defines specific virtual disk-to-LUN mappings to an
individual host or assigns the host to a host group.

host

Specifies the name of the host to which the virtual disk is
mapped. You must put quotation marks (" ") around the
host name.

hostGroup

Specifies the name of the host group to which the virtual
disk is mapped. You must put quotation marks (" ") around
the host group name.

NOTE: When using this command, you can specify one or more of the parameters. You do not, however, need to
use all of the parameters.

NOTE: You can apply the addCapacity, segmentSize, userLabel, and logicalUnitNumber
parameters to only one virtual disk at a time.
