4.1.0 HP PolyServe Matrix Server administration guide (T5392-96073, October 2010)

The Stripe State reported in the “Dynamic Volume Properties” section will be one of
the following:
• Unstriped. The volume is concatenated and striping is not in effect.
• Optimal. The volume has only one stripeset that includes all subdevices. Each
subdevice is written to in turn.
• Suboptimal. The volume has been extended and includes more than one stripeset.
The subdevices in the first stripeset will be completely filled before writes to the
next stripeset begin. To change the Stripe State to optimal, you will need to recre-
ate the dynamic volume.
To display the properties from the command line, use the following command:
mx dynvolume properties <volumeName>
