Dell 36XX, 34XX, 38XX, 32XX manual EnclosureLossProtect, DrawerLossProtect, DataAssurance

Parameter	Description
enclosureLossProtect	The setting to enforce enclosure loss protection
	when you create the replication repository virtual
	disk. To enforce enclosure loss protection, set this
	parameter to TRUE. The default value is FALSE.
drawerLossProtect	The setting to enforce drawer loss protection
	when you create the replication repository virtual
	disk. To enforce drawer loss protection, set this
	parameter to TRUE. The default value is FALSE.
dataAssurance	The setting to specify that a disk group, and the
	virtual disks within the disk group, has data
	assurance protection to make sure that the data
	maintains its integrity. When you use this
	parameter, only protected physical disks can be
	used for the disk group. These settings are valid:
	• none - The disk group does not have data
	assurance protection.
	• enabled - The disk group has data assurance
	protection. The disk group supports protected
	information and is formatted with protection
	information enabled.

Notes

The repositoryPhysicalDisks parameter supports both high-capacity expansion enclosures and low-capacity expansion enclosures. A high-capacity expansion enclosure has drawers that hold the physical disks. The drawers slide out of the expansion enclosure to provide access to the physical disks. A low-capacity expansion enclosure does not have drawers. For a high-capacity expansion enclosure, you must specify the identifier (ID) of the expansion enclosure, the ID of the drawer, and the ID of the slot in which a physical disk resides. For a low-capacity expansion enclosure, you need only specify the ID of the expansion enclosure and the ID of the slot in which a physical disk resides. For a low-capacity expansion enclosure, an alternative method for identifying a location for a physical disk is to specify the ID of the expansion enclosure, set the ID of the drawer to 0, and specify the ID of the slot in which a physical disk resides.

If the physical disks that you select for the repositoryPhysicalDisks parameter are not compatible with other parameters (such as the repositoryRAIDLevel parameter), the script command returns an error, and Remote Replication (Legacy) is not activated. The error returns the amount of space that is needed for the replication repository virtual disk. You can then re-enter the command, and specify the appropriate amount of space.

If you enter a value for the repository storage space that is too small for the replication repository virtual disks, the RAID controller module firmware returns an error message that provides the amount of space that is needed for the replication repository virtual disks. The command does not try to activate Remote Replication (Legacy). You can re-enter the command by using the value from the error message for the repository storage space value.

When you assign the physical disks, if you set the enclosureLossProtect parameter to TRUE and have selected more than one physical disk from any one enclosure, the storage array returns an error. If you
