create volume-set Description Creates multiple volumes in the specified vdisk. The volumes have the same base name, size, and default mapping settings (LUN, access, and ports) Syntax create volume-set vdisk vdisk basename base-name count # size size[B|KB|MB|GB|TB|KiB|MiB|GiB|TiB] [baselun base-LUN] [access read-write|rw|read-only|ro|no-access] [ports ports] Parameters vdisk vdisk Name or serial number of the vdisk to create the volumes in. For syntax, see Command syntax. basename base-name A base name for the new volumes. A name is case sensitive, cannot include a comma, double quote, or backslash, and can have a maximum of 20 bytes. A name that includes a space must be enclosed in double quotes. Resulting volumes are numbered sequentially from 000 (not 0000) through 1023. If volumes with the specified basename already exist, names of new volumes start with the first available name in the sequence. For example: for basename vd1_v, if vd1_v000 and vd1_v002 exist, the next volumes created will be vd1_v001 and vd1_v003. count # The number of volumes to create. size size[B|KB|MB|GB|TB|KiB|MiB|GiB|TiB] Sets the volume size using the current base, as shown by show cli-parameters. The unit can be specified as follows: • If base 2 is in use: B (bytes), KiB (kibibytes), MiB (mebibytes), or GiB (gibibytes) • If base 10 is in use: B (bytes), KB (kilobytes), MB (megabytes), or GB (gigabytes) If no unit is specified, the unit is blocks. baselun base-LUN Optional. A LUN to assign to the mapping on all ports. If this parameter is omitted, the default LUN is presented. access read-write|rw|read-only|ro|no-access Optional. Access privilege that hosts have to these volumes: read-write (rw), read-only (ro), or no-access. A volume mapped with no-access is masked. The default is read-write. ports ports Optional. The controller ports through which hosts can access the volumes. If not all ports are specified, the unspecified ports are automatically mapped to no access. For syntax, see Command syntax. Example Create three 20-GB volumes with the base name vd1_v in vdisk vd1: # create volume-set count 3 size 20GB vdisk vd1 basename vd1_v Info: Command completed successfully. (vd1_v000) - Created volume vd1_v000. Info: Command completed successfully. (vd1_v001) - Created volume vd1_v001. Info: Command completed successfully. (vd1_v002) - Created volume vd1_v002.

Creates multiple volumes in the specified vdisk. The volumes have the same base name, size, and
default mapping settings (LUN, access, and ports)

[access read-write|rw|read-only|ro|no-access]
[ports

]
Parameters
vdisk
vdisk
Name or serial number of the vdisk to create the volumes in. For syntax, see
Command syntax
.
basename
base-name
A base name for the new volumes. A name is case sensitive, cannot include a comma, double quote,
or backslash, and can have a maximum of 20 bytes. A name that includes a space must be
enclosed in double quotes.
Resulting volumes are numbered sequentially from 000 (not 0000) through 1023. If volumes with the
specified basename already exist, names of new volumes start with the first available name in the
sequence. For example: for basename
vd1_v
, if
vd1_v000
and
vd1_v002
exist, the next volumes
created will be
vd1_v001
and
vd1_v003
.
count
#
The number of volumes to create.
size
size
[B|KB|MB|GB|TB|KiB|MiB|GiB|TiB]
Sets the volume size using the current base, as shown by
show cli-parameters
. The unit can be
specified as follows:
If base 2 is in use:
B
(bytes),
KiB
(kibibytes),
MiB
(mebibytes), or
GiB
(gibibytes)
If base 10 is in use:
B
(bytes),
KB
(kilobytes),
MB
(megabytes), or
GB
(gigabytes)
If no unit is specified, the unit is blocks.
baselun
base-LUN
Optional. A LUN to assign to the mapping on all ports. If this parameter is omitted, the default LUN
is presented.
access read-write|rw|read-only|ro|no-access
Optional. Access privilege that hosts have to these volumes: read-write (
rw
), read-only (
ro
), or
no-access. A volume mapped with
no-access
is masked. The default is
read-write
.
ports
ports
Optional. The controller ports through which hosts can access the volumes. If not all ports are
specified, the unspecified ports are automatically mapped to no access. For syntax, see
Command
syntax
.
Example
Create three 20-GB volumes with the base name
vd1_v
in vdisk
vd1
:
# create volume-set count 3 size 20GB vdisk vd1 basename vd1_v
Info: Command completed successfully. (vd1_v000) - Created volume vd1_v000.
Info: Command completed successfully. (vd1_v001) - Created volume vd1_v001.
Info: Command completed successfully. (vd1_v002) - Created volume vd1_v002.
