Concept Guide

CAUTION: Deleting a virtual disk destroys all information including file
systems and volumes residing on the virtual disk. You may receive a
warning message if you attempt to delete the system or boot partition.
However, this warning message is not generated always. Ensure that you
do not delete the system or boot partition or other vital data when using
this command.
Syntax
omconfig storage vdisk action=deletevdisk controller=id
vdisk=id, 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: In some circumstances, you may receive a warning message if this
command deletes the system or boot partition. You can override this
warning by using the force=yes parameter. In this case, the syntax is as
follows:
omconfig storage vdisk action=deletevdisk controller=id
vdisk=id force=yes
Example to Delete virtual disk 4 on controller 1
Example
omconfig storage vdisk action=deletevdisk controller=1
vdisk=4
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 extra 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: When you perform the virtual disk reconfiguration operation using
the sizeinpercent/vdcapacityexpansion argument, Storage
Management does not allow addition of physical disks to the existing
reconfigured disk group. On successful operation, the virtual disk capacity
is expanded, but the additional physical disk is not considered.
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.
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.
