NOTE:

This command is similar to CreateVirtualDisk, but enables you to associate the created
virtual disk to a specific LUN number on each host.

The command is designed for a UDH (user defined host), under the intelligent design framework.

If the LUN number for UDH is set to -1, a LUN is associated automatically to that virtual disk under
the relevant host.

Granularity is fixed at 1024 KB and is the default.

If you want to give permissions to the host, but the LUN number is not important (but still assigned),
the LUN number for the host should be -1. Check the VSM user guide documentation for valid values.

DeleteVirtualDisk

command

Syntax

DeleteVirtualDisk -VirtualDisk VirtualDiskName [LastInstance]

Description

Deletes the virtual disk. If the LastInstance flag is used, the preceding virtual disk name is the root
name, and the most recently created virtual disk (with a template name) is the subject of this command.

ExpandPartition

command

Syntax

ExpandPartition -Drive H:, -By ExtendByMB, -StoragePool PoolName

or

ExpandPartition -Drive H:, -Size CurrentSizeInMB, ~

-Extend ExtendbyPercent, -StoragePool PoolName

Description

Expands both a VSM virtual disk and its corresponding partition (file system).

NOTE:

A virtual disk with PiTs on it, or a virtual disk in a synchronous mirror group, cannot be expanded.

The drive letter must be followed by a colon or a $ sign.
