Field | Description |
|
|
Identifier | The identifier of the volume |
|
|
Type | The RAID type of the volume |
|
|
Size (GB) | The coerced size of the volume |
| NOTE: To facilitate coercion on new larger disk drives, the disk size must |
| be coerced down with a factor of 128 MB. Additionally, to comply with the |
| latest Disk Data Format standard, 512 MB of space must be reserved for |
| RAID metadata on the drive. This results in several hundred MB of space |
| being removed from the usable size of an volume when it is created. |

Status | The status of the volume |

Manage | This option is used to create or delete global hot spares. Using this |
Hotspares | option you can: |
