-str or strict <number>
Strict (-str parameter) is the percentage of
expected array disk utilization.
Example:
A:> raidcfg -ctrl -ac=
cvd -c=0 -ad=0:0,0:1 -
r=1 -str=20
If the unused portion of an array disk is
greater than the above percentage, raidcfg
aborts.
For SCSI controllers, the value of LUN should
always be 0.
For SAS controllers, the value of enclosure
can be non-zero, in which case you must
specify values for channel, target, and
enclosure.

-sz or -size <number>
Sets the maximum size of the virtual disk in
MB or GB. A valid argument is a number
representing the maximum size for the virtual
disk. The -szoption is optional and can be the
added to the command line in any order after
the mandatory option combination.
The minimum virtual disk size that you can
create for various controllers is given below.
• For PERC 5 controllers:
– RAID 0: 100 MB
– RAID 1: 100 MB
– RAID 5: 100 MB
• For PERC 6 controllers:
– RAID 0: 100 MB
– RAID 1: 100 MB
– RAID 5: 100 MB
– RAID 6: 100 MB
– RAID 60: 100 MB
• For PERC 7 and PERC 8 controllers:
– RAID 0: 100 MB
– RAID 1: 100 MB
– RAID 5: 100 MB
– RAID 6: 100 MB
– RAID 10: 100 MB
– RAID 50: 100 MB
