Script Commands

capacity

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

NOTE:

If you do not specify a capacity, all physical disk

capacity available in the disk group is used. If you do not
specify capacity units, bytes are used as the default. A
space must be added between the last digit and the size
(MB, GB, or KB) for values greater than 9.

owner

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. The preferred
owner of a virtual disk is the RAID controller module that
currently owns the disk group.

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" on page 53.

enclosureLossProtect

Specifies that enclosure loss protection is enforced when
creating the repository. To enforce enclosure loss
protection, set this parameter to TRUE. The default
setting is FALSE. For information about the
enclosureLossProtect parameter, see "Enclosure Loss
Protection" on page 52.
