Parameters

Additional Information

physicalDisks

The

physicalDisks parameter lets you choose the number of physical disks

that you want to use in the disk group. If you choose this option, you do not
need to specify the physical disks by tray ID and slot ID. The RAID controller
modules choose the specific physical disks to use for the disk group. If you do
not specify a capacity by using the

capacity parameter, all of the physical disk

capacity that is available in the disk group is used. If you do not specify
capacity units, bytes is used as the default value.
