set this parameter to TRUE. The default setting is FALSE. For

the replication repository disk group. To enforce drawer loss

 

protection, set this parameter to TRUE. The default value is

 

FALSE.

dssPreAllocate

The setting to make sure that reserve capacity is allocated for

 

future segment size increases. The default value is TRUE.

securityType

The setting to specify the security level when creating the disk

 

groups and all associated virtual disks.

 

none—The disk group and virtual disks are not secure.

 

capable—The disk group and virtual disks are capable of

 

having security set, but security has not been enabled.

 

enabled—The disk group and virtual disks have security

 

enabled.

 

For information about securityType, see Security Type.

usageHint

The setting for both cacheReadPrefetch parameter and the

 

segmentSize parameter to be default values. The default values

 

are based on the typical I/O usage pattern of the application

 

that is using the virtual disk. Valid values are fileSystem,

 

dataBase, or multiMedia.

dataAssurance

The setting to specify that a disk pool 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 pool.

 

These settings are valid:

 

• none – The disk pool does not have data assurance

 

protection.

 

• enabled – The disk pool has data assurance protection. The
