Changing the Virtual Disk Cache Settings You can specify the cache memory settings for a single virtual disk or for multiple virtual disks on a storage array. Guidelines to change cache settings for a virtual disk: • After opening the Change Cache Settings dialog, the system may prompt you that the RAID controller module has temporarily suspended caching operations. This action might occur when a new battery is charging, when a RAID controller module has been removed, or if a mismatch in cache sizes has been detected by the RAID controller module. After the condition has cleared, the cache properties selected in the dialog become active. If the selected cache properties do not become active, contact your Technical Support representative. • If you select more than one virtual disk, the cache settings default to no settings selected. The current cache settings appear only if you select a single virtual disk. • If you change the cache settings by using this option, the priority of all of the virtual disks that you selected is modified.
