container Commands container add_level To create a multilevel volume set from an existing array by adding a volume set on top of the array, use the container add_level command. The existing array cannot be a multilevel array. The container add_level command enables dynamic expansion of an array and can be executed even while an array is in use. After executing the command, you can use the container extend mvolume command to add more space. Syntax container add_level {container} Parameters {container} Specifies the ID number (0 to 63) of the array to convert to a multilevel volume set. The specified array must not be a multilevel array. Examples Before creating a multilevel volume set, use the container list command to obtain information about any existing arrays. As the following example shows, there is an array 0 (a stripe set) on this controller: AAC0>container list Executing: container list Num Total Oth Stripe Scsi Partition Dr Label Type Size Ctr Size Usage C:ID:L Offset:Size 0 Stripe 45MB 32KB None 0:02:0 64.0KB: 15.0MB 0:03:0 64.0KB: 15.0MB 0:04:0 64.0KB: 15.0MB The following example creates a multilevel volume set on top of array 0, which is a stripe set previously created with the container create stripe command: AAC0>container add_level 0 Executing: container add_level 0 5-3
