Chapter 7 Disk Array Configuration Setting
IV-50
Starting LD Number: A number which is equal to or higher than the specified logical disk number and still
unused is assigned.
When this parameter is omitted (or if the specified number is invalid), the number
subsequent to the largest logical disk number already occupied is assigned.
For example, when logical disk numbers 0, 1, 3, and 4 are in use, new logical disks are
numbered as follows:
When omitted: 5, 6, 7 …
When 0 specified: 2, 5, 6 …
When 10 specified: 10, 11, 12 …
Remark: Unlike in the case of the screen of
S100/S1100/S1200/S1300/S2100/S2200/S2300, the screen allows
changes for previous values.
Format Time: Specify the maximum duration of time to bind the logical disks (only for those to be
bound in a basic pool).
You can specify 0 to 24 hours. Specifying 0 binds the logical disks in the shortest time.
The time specified in the field is just a target, thus it is not assured to take the specified
time.
The specified time is the standard average, thus the time actually required depends on the load on the disk array.
Specify 0 to bind the logical disks in the shortest time. Otherwise, specify a larger value (24 or close to it) to
reduce load to the disk array and give priority to the I/O of other transactions.
[OK] button: Displays back the screen for specifying the details of the logical disks with the parameter(s)
you changed.
[Cancel] button: Displays back the screen for specifying the details of the logical disks. All parameter
changes you made on this screen are canceled.
