Add Virtual Volumes to Windows 1. Select the virtual volume that you want to configure as a Windows disk. The virtual volume is displayed as a virtual volume device. • If the volume is less than 2 TB, SmartStart initializes the Windows disk as Master Boot Record (MBR). • If the volume is greater than 2 TB, SmartStart initializes the Windows disk as a Globally Unique Identifier Partition Table (GPT). 2. In the Disk label for this virtual volume field, enter the Windows disk name to assign to this virtual volume. The disk label enables you to identify this virtual volume on the Windows server. NOTE: Do not use special characters in the disk label. Certain special characters, such as an apostrophe (') or quotation mark ("), can prevent the wizard from adding the virtual volume to Windows successfully. 3. Select a drive to assign to the virtual volume, or select an empty NTFS folder to mount. To mount a volume to an empty folder on a remote system, enter the drive and a folder name that references the remote system (for example, C:\). The network path is not supported. NOTE: Verify that the folder you mount is empty. If the folder does not exist, is not empty, or is read-only, the folder might not mount successfully. 4. Click Next. NOTE: Adding virtual volumes to Windows might take up to 10 minutes.
