Omconfig reconfiguring virtual disks
Description Reconfigure a virtual disk to change the virtual disk’s RAID level or increase its
size by either adding physical disks or using the available free space. On some
controllers, you can also remove physical disks.
NOTE: If you want to reconfigure with an additional physical disk, the
physical disk must be of the supported bus protocol, media type, sector
size, T10 Protection Information capability, and encryption capability.
Syntax
omconfig storage vdisk action=reconfigure controller=id
vdisk=id raid=<c| r0| r1| r1c| r5| r6| r10> pdisk=<PDISK>
[size=<size> vdcapacityexpansion=yes sizeinpercent=<1 to
100>], where id is the controller ID and virtual disk ID as reported by the
omreport command.
NOTE: To obtain these values, type omreport storage controller to display
the controller IDs and then type omreport storage vdisk controller=ID to
display the IDs for the virtual disks attached to the controller.
NOTE: On software RAID controllers, you cannot specify the size for
reconfiguring the virtual disk .
Example to Reconfigure virtual disk 4 to a size of 800 MB, use RAID-5 and physical disks 0
through 3 on connector 0 of controller 1. On a SAS controller, the physical disks
reside in enclosure 2.
Example for SCSI,
SATA, and ATA
controllers
omconfig storage vdisk action=reconfigure controller=1
vdisk=4 raid=r5 size=800m pdisk=0:0,0:1,0:2,0:3
Example for SAS
controllers
omconfig storage vdisk action=reconfigure controller=1
vdisk=4 raid=r5 pdisk=0:2:0,0:2:1,0:2:2,0:2:3
Example to Increase the size of the virtual disk by 20 percent using the available free space,
use RAID-5 and physical disks 0 through 3 on connector 0 of controller 1. On a
SAS controller, the physical disks reside in enclosure 2.
Example
omconfig storage vdisk action=reconfigure controller=1
vdisk=4 raid=r5 pdisk=0:2:0,0:2:1,0:2:2,0:2:3
vdcapacityexpansion=yes sizeinpercent=20
NOTE: vdcapacityexpansion parameter is supported only on PERC H700
and PERC H800 controllers. If you set vdcapacityexpansion=yes, specify
sizeinpercent. If you do not set vdcapacityexpansion, specify size.
