Purpose Command Description
The slot ID in <-c=slotid> and the array disks in <-ad=...>
are obtained from the rst two commands.
To create a virtual disk of a
certain size and make it RAID
5
raidcfg -ctrl -ac=cvd
-c=slotid -ad=
x:y,x:y,x:y,... -
sz=5GB -r=5
Creates a virtual disk of 5 GB size for type RAID 5.
The slot ID in <-c=slotid> and the array disks in <-ad=...>
are obtained from the rst two commands.
To create a virtual disk of a
certain size and make it RAID 1
with a hot spare
raidcfg -ctrl -ac=cvd
-c=slotid -ad=
x:y,x:y -sz=5GB -r=1
-fd=x:y
Creates a virtual disk of 5 GB size for type RAID 1.
The slot ID in <-c=slotid> and the array disks in <-ad=...>
are obtained from the rst two commands.
The option <-fd> stands for failover drive and requires the drive
location of the drive you want the dedicated hot spare to be in.
The drive location is obtained from the second command.
To create a virtual disk of RAID
10
raidcfg -ctrl -ac=cvd
-c=slotid -ad=
x:y,x:y,x:y,x:y -r=10
Creates a virtual disk of max size for type RAID 10.
The slot ID in <-c=slotid> and the array disks in <-ad=...>
are obtained from the rst two commands. The drive location is
obtained from the second command.
To create a virtual disk of RAID
50
raidcfg -ctrl -ac=cvd
-c=slotid -ad=
x:y,x:y,x:y,x:y ,x:y,
x:y -r=50 -sp=x
Creates a virtual disk of maximum size for type RAID 50.
The slot ID in <-c=slotid> and the array disks in <-ad=...>
are obtained from the rst two commands. The drive location is
obtained from the second command.
To create a virtual disk of RAID
6
raidcfg -ctrl -ac=cvd
-c=slotid -ad=
x:y,x:y,x:y,x:y ,x:y,
x:y -r=6 -sp=x
Creates a virtual disk of maximum size for type RAID 6.
The slot ID in <-c=slotid> and the array disks in <-ad=...>
are obtained from the rst two commands. The drive location is
obtained from the second command.
NOTE: The minimum number of drives required to create
a virtual disk of RAID 6 is 4.
To create a virtual disk of RAID
60
raidcfg -ctrl -ac=cvd
-c=slotid -ad=
x:y,x:y,x:y,x:y ,x:y,
x:y -r=60 -sp=x
Creates a virtual disk of maximum size for type RAID 60.
The slot ID in <-c=slotid> and the array disks in <-ad=...>
are obtained from the rst two commands. The drive location is
obtained from the second command.
NOTE: The minimum number of drives required to create
a virtual disk of RAID 60 is 8.
To view all the virtual disks in a
system
raidcfg vdisk
Lists the virtual disks on a system for all RAID controllers.
To view all the virtual disks for
a specic controller
raidcfg vdisk -
c=slotid
Lists all the virtual disks on a specic controller.
The slot ID in <-c=slotid> is obtained from the rst
commands.
To delete a specic virtual disk
on a controller
raidcfg vdisk -ac=dvd
-c=slotid -vd=
vdiskid
Deletes a specic virtual disk on a controller.
