Configuration Script Example 2 This example creates a new virtual disk using the create virtualDisk command with user-defined physical disks in the storage array. Show "Create RAID 5 Virtual Disk 2 on existing Disk Group 2"; //This command creates the disk group and the initial virtual disk on that group. //Note: For disk groups that use all available capacity, the last virtual disk on the group is created using all remaining capacity by omitting the capacity=virtualDisk creation parameter create virtualDisk raidLevel=5 userLabel="2" physicalDisks=[0,1 0,6 1,7 1,3 2,3 2,6] owner=1 segmentSize=16 capacity=2GB; show "Setting additional attributes for virtual disk 7"; //Configuration settings that cannot be set during virtual disk creation set virtualDisk["7"] mediaScanEnabled=false; set virtualDisk["7"] consistencyCheckEnabled= false; set virtualDisk["7"] modificationPriority=high; The command in this example, like the create virtualDisk command in the previous example, creates a new virtual disk. The significant difference between these two examples is that this example shows how you can define specific physical disks to include in the virtual disk. To find out what physical disks are available in a storage array, run the show storageArray profile command. 266 Sample Script Files

Configuration Script Example 2
This example creates a new virtual disk using the
create virtualDisk
command with user-defined physical disks in the storage array.
Show "Create RAID 5 Virtual Disk 2 on existing
Disk Group 2";
//This command creates the disk group and the
initial virtual disk on that group.
//Note: For disk groups that use all available
capacity, the last virtual disk on the group is
created using all remaining capacity by omitting
the capacity=virtualDisk creation parameter
create virtualDisk raidLevel=5 userLabel="2"
physicalDisks=[0,1 0,6 1,7 1,3 2,3 2,6] owner=1
segmentSize=16 capacity=2GB;
show "Setting additional attributes for virtual
disk 7";
//Configuration settings that cannot be set during
virtual disk creation
set virtualDisk["7"] mediaScanEnabled=false;
set virtualDisk["7"] consistencyCheckEnabled=
false;
set virtualDisk["7"] modificationPriority=high;
The command in this example, like the
create virtualDisk
command in the
previous example, creates a new virtual disk. The significant difference between
these two examples is that this example shows how you can define specific
physical disks to include in the virtual disk. To find out what physical disks are
available in a storage array, run the
show storageArray profile
command.
