Compaq HSZ80 manual Initialize storageset-name switch, Show storageset-name

2.Initialize the storageset or disk drive. If you want to set any Initialize switches, you must do so in this step. Use the following syntax:

INITIALIZE storageset-name switch

3.Create each partition in the storageset or disk drive by indicating the partition’s size. Use the following syntax:

CREATE_PARTITION storageset-nameSIZE=n

where n is the percentage of the disk drive or storageset that will be assigned to the partition. Enter SIZE=LARGEST to let the controller assign the largest free space available to the partition.

4.Verify the partitions using the following syntax:

SHOW storageset-name

The partition number appears in the first column, followed by the size and starting block of each partition.

5.Present each partition to the host by giving it a unit number the host can recognize. (You can skip this step until you are ready to put the partitions online.) Optionally, you can append Unit switch values. If you do not specify switch values, default values are applied.

Use the following syntax to present partitions to the host:

ADD UNIT unit-number storageset-name PARTITION=partition-number switch

See “ADD UNIT,” page 5–27,for valid switches and values.

6.Verify the unit numbers for the partitions using the following syntax:

SHOW storageset-name
