size=<number | max | min> Parameter

The following table displays how to specify the size=<number | max | min>

Table 99. Size Parameter

size=<number | max | min> Parameter

Specification

Description

size=<n> Use this specification to indicate a specific size for

the virtual disk. The virtual disk size is specified in b

(bytes), m (megabytes), or g (gigabytes). For

example, size=500m indicates that the virtual disk

is 500 MB.

size=max To create a virtual disk that is the maximum size

possible, specify size=max. When creating a

RAID-50 virtual disk, this parameter is specified as

size=max.

size=min To create a virtual disk that is the minimum size

possible, specify size=min.

stripesize=< 2kb | 4kb | 8kb | 16kb | 32kb | 64kb | 128kb>

stripesize=<2kb | 4kb | 8kb | 16kb | 32kb | 64kb | 128kb>

Different controllers support different stripe sizes. For more information on stripe sizes supported for a

controller, see the Dell OpenManage Online Help. All stripe sizes are specified in kilobytes. For example,

when specifying 128 KB as the stripe size, type: stripesize=128kb

PDISKID=<connector:enclosureID:targetID | connector:targetID>

Use this parameter to specify the physical disks to be included in the virtual disk.
