If you are working in

aV-Switch cluster, this volume must be configured on both V-Switches.

Assigning a volume alias is optional. If you do not include a volume alias in the command, the volume alias will default to the subdisk alias in which the volume is located. For example, a simple volume created on Subdisk 6 will be named Subdisk 6 by default.

Use the –sdswitch to assign a subdisk or the –dswitch to assign a disk.

Example:

In Figure 42, Subdisk 1 on Disk 1 is converted to a simple volume, Simple 1.

volume create simple –vol Simple1 –sd Subdisk1
