Command Line Interface Guide

256 omconfig storage Commands
Physical disk is specified as either:
• For SCSI, SATA, and ATA controllers:
p
disk=connector:enclosureID:targetID
where connector:enclosureID:targetID is the connector number, enclosure
number, and slot number.
For example pdisk=0:1:2
• For SAS controllers:
pdisk=connector:targetID
where connectorID:targetID is the connector number and the slot number.
For example: pdisk=0:2
Storage Management supplies default values for any of the other parameters
that you do not specify.
For creating an encrypted virtual disk, specify secureflag=yes. You can create
encrypted virtual disks only with SED drives.
Complete Syntax
omconfig storage controller action=createvdisk
controller=id raid=<c| r0| r1| r1c| r5| r6| r10| r50
|r60> size=<number | max | min> pdisk=<PDISKID>
[stripesize=< 2kb| 4kb| 8kb| 16kb| 32kb| 64kb|
128kb>] [cachepolicy=<d | c>] [diskcachepolicy=
<disabled | enabled>][readpolicy=<ra | nra | ara |
rc| nrc>] [writepolicy=<wb| wt| wc| nwc | fwb>]
[name=<string>] [spanlength=<n>] |
[secureflag=yes]
NOTE: If you are configuring RAID for SAS controllers with firmware version 6.1
and later, spanlength is an optional parameter (default=2). Spanlength is an even
number and is lesser than or equal to half the number of physical disks specified
in size.
