=> ctrl ch="Lab 4" pd all show In this case, the screen response is: MSA1000 at Lab 4 array A physicaldrive 1:12 (box 1:bay12, Parallel SCSI, 36.4 GB, OK) unassigned physicaldrive 1:13 (box 1:bay13, Parallel SCSI, 9.1 GB, OK) physicaldrive 1:14 (box 1:bay14, Parallel SCSI, 9.1 GB, OK) The second array is to be created on the two remaining physical drives. Before creating this array, determine what RAID options are available for these drives: => ctrl ch="Lab 4" create type=ld drives=1:13,1:14 size=300 raid=? The response in this case is: Available options are: 0 1+0 (default value) Now, create the new array: => ctrl ch="Lab 4" create type=ld drives=1:13,1:14 size=300 raid=1+0 It is not strictly necessary to specify the RAID level in this example because it is the highest possible level for this scenario and will be used by default. However, it is included in the command as an example. Now, verify that the array has been formed: => ctrl ch="Lab 4" pd all show The screen response is: MSA1000 at Lab 4 array A physicaldrive 1:12 (box 1:bay12, Parallel SCSI, 36.4 GB, OK) array B physicaldrive 1:13 (box 1:bay13, Parallel SCSI, 9.1 GB, OK) physicaldrive 1:14 (box 1:bay14, Parallel SCSI, 9.1 GB, OK) To create a second logical drive on array B, you can specify the array (method A) or you can specify every physical drive in the array (method B). => ctrl ch="Lab 4" array B create type=ld size=900 (method A) => ctrl ch="Lab 4" create type=ld drives=1:13,1:14 size=900 (method B) Finally, verify that the logical drives have all been created correctly: => ctrl ch="Lab 4" ld all show MSA1000 at Lab 4 array A logicaldrive 1 (33.9 GB, RAID 0, OK) array B logicaldrive 2 (298 MB, RAID 1+0, OK) logicaldrive 3 (896 MB, RAID 1+0, OK) Moving a logical drive ACU now enables you to move a single logical drive from one array to another array. This feature is available on Gen8 Smart Array controllers. HP Array Configuration Utility 57

=> ctrl ch="Lab 4" pd all show
In this case, the screen response is:
MSA1000 at Lab 4
array A
physicaldrive 1:12 (box 1:bay12, Parallel SCSI, 36.4 GB, OK)
unassigned
physicaldrive 1:13 (box 1:bay13, Parallel SCSI, 9.1 GB, OK)
physicaldrive 1:14 (box 1:bay14, Parallel SCSI, 9.1 GB, OK)
The second array is to be created on the two remaining physical drives. Before creating this array, determine
what RAID options are available for these drives:
=> ctrl ch="Lab 4" create type=ld drives=1:13,1:14 size=300 raid=?
The response in this case is:
Available options are:
0
1+0 (default value)
Now, create the new array:
=> ctrl ch="Lab 4" create type=ld drives=1:13,1:14 size=300 raid=1+0
It is not strictly necessary to specify the RAID level in this example because it is the highest possible level for
this scenario and will be used by default. However, it is included in the command as an example.
Now, verify that the array has been formed:
=> ctrl ch="Lab 4" pd all show
The screen response is:
MSA1000 at Lab 4
array A
physicaldrive 1:12 (box 1:bay12, Parallel SCSI, 36.4 GB, OK)
array B
physicaldrive 1:13 (box 1:bay13, Parallel SCSI, 9.1 GB, OK)
physicaldrive 1:14 (box 1:bay14, Parallel SCSI, 9.1 GB, OK)
To create a second logical drive on array B, you can specify the array (method A) or you can specify every
physical drive in the array (method B).
=> ctrl ch="Lab 4" array B create type=ld size=900 (method A)
=> ctrl ch="Lab 4" create type=ld drives=1:13,1:14 size=900 (method B)
Finally, verify that the logical drives have all been created correctly:
=> ctrl ch="Lab 4" ld all show
MSA1000 at Lab 4
array A
logicaldrive 1 (33.9 GB, RAID 0, OK)
array B
logicaldrive 2 (298 MB, RAID 1+0, OK)
logicaldrive 3 (896 MB, RAID 1+0, OK)
Moving a logical drive
ACU now enables you to move a single logical drive from one array to another array. This feature is
available on Gen8 Smart Array controllers.
