write cache policy and “dirty page” threshold (data not committed to disk); adds Solid State
Drives to the maxCache pool and removes SSDs from the pool; sets the maxCache read/write
balance and cache fetch/flush rate; clears the maxCache pool.
Note:
maxCache write caching can be enabled only with the assistance of Adaptec by PMC
support. Contact your service representative for information about enabling the maxCache write
caching feature.
Note: Before you can enable maxCache SSD caching, you must assign at least one SSD to the
maxCache pool.
