This parameter determines the types of disks to be considered for creating the disk group. The default value is ONLINE.

ONLINE: Online Fibre channel disks are considered for creating the default disk group.

SPARE_POLICY=

This parameter determines the amount, if any, of storage space set aside for safety in the event that disks fail. The default SPARE_POLICY is SINGLE.

NONE—Reserves no space within a disk group to allow for data reconstruction for failure of disk drives.
