3. If necessary, select the dynamic Group name for the volume from the pull-down list.
4. Type in the Volume Name. This is a Volume Manager-specific name that is used in
some Volume Manager commands. It is different from the volume label for the file
system.
5. Specify the volume size, or select Maxsize.
The Maxsize button works differently, depending on whether you have a disk
selected.
- If you do not have a disk selected when you start the Create Volume wizard,
no figure displays in the volume size box. If you then click on a volume type
and also click the Maxsize button, a size appears in the volume size box that
represents the maximum volume for that layout for all disks in the dynamic
group.
