A job is started to create the parity group for the storage system. This job
includes the following tasks:
• Identifies the appropriate number and position for the spare disk.
• Assigns a spare disk.
• Creates the required number of parity groups for the requested RAID
layout.
• Creates and quick formats the necessary volumes on the parity group so
that it is ready for pool creation.

created. Each sub-job will show the status of the parity groups being
created.
Note: If you are creating parity groups for the entire array, it may take
several hours before the storage system is configured.
Next steps
