Problems Associated With Using the Same Physical Disks for Both

Redundant and Non-Redundant Virtual Disks

When creating virtual disks, you should avoid using the same physical disks

for both redundant and non-redundant virtual disks. This recommendation

applies to all controllers. Using the same physical disks for both redundant

and non-redundant virtual disks can result in unexpected behavior including

data loss.

NOTE: SAS controllers do not allow you to create redundant and non-redundant

virtual disks on the same set of physical disks.
