Description Fast initializes a virtual disk.

CAUTION: 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=fastinit 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=fastinit controller=id vdisk=id

force=yes
