Logical volumes can be assigned to different controllers (primary or
secondary). Default is primary.
Note that if a logical volume is manually assigned to a specific
controller, all its members’ assignment will also be shifted to that
controller.
As all the member logical drives are selected, press [ESC] to
continue. The confirm box displays. Choose Yes to create the
logical volume.
Press [ENTER] and the information of the created logical volume
displays.
LV: Logical Volume ID
P0: Logical Volume 0 managed by the primary controller
S0:
Logical Volume 0 managed by the secondary
controller
ID: Unique ID for the logical volume, randomly
generated by the controller
Size: Capacity of this volume
#LD: Number of the included members
7.6 Partitioning a Logical Drive/Logical
Volume
The process of partitioning a logical drive is the same as that of
partitioning a logical volume. We take the partitioning of a logical
volume for an example in the proceeding discussion.
Please note that partitioning can be very useful when dealing with a
very large capacity but partitioning a logical drive or logical volume
is not a must for RAID configuration.
