physicalDiskType

Specifies the type of physical disk to use
in the virtual disk. You cannot mix
physical disk types in the virtual disk.
Valid physical disk types are SAS or SATA.

capacity

The size of the virtual disk that you are
adding to the storage array. Size is defined
in units of bytes, kilobytes, megabytes, or
gigabytes.

NOTE:

A space must be added between

the last digit and the size (MB, GB, or KB)
for values greater than 9.

owner

The RAID controller module that owns
the virtual disk. Valid RAID controller
module identifiers are 0 or 1, where 0 is
the RAID controller module on the left
and 1 is the RAID controller module on
the right when viewed from the rear of the
enclosure. If you do not specify an owner,
the RAID controller module firmware
determines the owner.

NOTE:

The owner parameter defines

which RAID controller module owns the
virtual disk. If you do not specify a capacity,
all of the available physical disk capacity in
the disk group is used. If you do not specify
capacity units, bytes are used as the
default units.
