omconfig Create Virtual Disk - Dell Network Card Manual

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.
