raid=<c| r0| r1| r1c| r5| r6| r10| r50| r60> Parameter (Required)
size=<number | max | min> Parameter (Required)
pdisk=<connector:targetID,connector:targetID,.....> Parameter (Required)
[stripesize=< 2kb| 4kb| 8kb| 16kb| 32kb| 64kb| 128kb>] Parameter
(Optional)
[cachepolicy=<d | c>] Parameter (Optional)
[readpolicy=<ra| nra| ara| rc| nrc>] Parameter (Optional)
[writepolicy=<wb| wt| wc| nwc | fwb>] Parameter (Optional)

Specify the controller ID as reported by the omreport storage controller
command. For example:
controller=2
raid=<c| r0| r1| r1c| r5| r6| r10| r50| r60> Parameter (Required)
Use the raid=<c| r0| r1| r1c| r5| r6 | r10| r50| r60> parameter to specify
concatenation or a RAID level for a virtual disk. Different controllers support
different RAID levels. See Dell OpenManage Online Help for more
information about RAID levels a controller supports and for general
information about RAID levels and concatenation. Table 6-17 indicates how
to specify the raid=n parameter for each RAID level and concatenation.
