omconfig Create Virtual Disk
The online help provides additional information about creating virtual disks.
The omconfig syntax for creating a virtual disk has several parameters. You must specify the
following parameters:
• Controller (controller=id)
• RAID level (raid=<c| r0| r1| r1c| r5| r10| r50>)
• Size (size=<number | max | min>)
•
Physical disk is specified as either :
pdisk=connector:enclosureID:portID
or
pdisk=connector:targetID
Storage Management supplies default values for any of the other parameters that you do not specify.
