HP Workstation xw6000 Adaptec SCSI RAID 2120S: Software Reference Guide - Page 344

Adaptec SCSI RAID Software Reference Guide The Size Keyword The Size keyword specifies the size of the array. Specify the size as an integer or a decimal number, followed by the unit keyword MB (megabytes), GB (gigabytes), or TB (terabytes). A unit keyword is required with a numeric size value. If no unit keyword is specified, the ACU exits with an error. Specify the keyword Maximum to create an array using the maximum available space, based on the array type and drives selected. If no Size property is specified, the value Maximum is used. Examples: Size=2.5GB Size=300MB Size=Maximum The StripeSize Keyword The StripeSize keyword specifies the size of contiguous I/O (in KB) written to each member of a striped array before switching to the next member. This property applies only to array types RAID 0, RAID 5, RAID 50, and RAID 10. The ACU exits with an error if this property is specified for any other array types. The possible values for StripeSize are 16, 32, and 64. Do not specify a unit keyword for the stripe size because all values are in kilobytes. If no StripeSize property is specified and the array type supports this property, the value 64 is used by default. Example: StripeSize=64 The Wait Keyword The Wait keyword indicates whether the ACU should wait for the new array's build/verify or clear to complete before continuing. The Wait property is optional; if not specified, the ACU waits for the array's build/verify or clear to complete before continuing. Specify Wait=No to allow the ACU to continue while the build/ verify or clear completes in the background.1 13-22
