Vraid6

Vraid6 has the highest availability of any Vraid type. It uses dual parity to provide protection

from simultaneous failure of two disk drives within a parity stripe. Vraid6 stripes have four data

blocks and two parity blocks. A new disk group type has been added to facilitate Vraid6

support. The enhanced disk group can simultaneously contain virtual disks of all supported

Vraid types. The legacy disk group type supports all Vraid types except for Vraid6. The disk

group type is set at the time of creation and cannot be changed after that time.
Note: SAN Connection Manager supports Vraid6 only for the EVA4400/6400/8400 running

firmware version 9500000 or later.
