Working with Multi-level Containers
Specifying a Label for a Volume Set of Stripe Sets
The container label attribute indicates a name assigned to a
container. Note that this label is not the label that displays in
Windows Explorer and Disk Administrator. You can specify a label
while creating a volume set of stripe sets or at a later time using the
container set label command at a later time to specify a label.
See Displaying and Setting a Container Label in Chapter 6, Working
with Container Attributes, for a description of the
container set
label command.
In the following example, the container create mvolume
command with the /label switch creates a volume set of stripe sets
with the label Mars.
HPN0> container create mvolume /label=Mars 0 1
Executing: container create mvolume /label="Mars" 0 1
Container 0 created
Understanding How to Create a Volume Set of Stripe Sets
This section provides an example that describes how to create a
volume set of stripe sets.
Before creating a volume set of stripe sets, be sure that the stripe sets
that are to makeup the volume set have been created. See Working
with a Stripe Set in Chapter 7, Working With Single-level Containers, for
information on creating a stripe set. Use the
container list
command to display information about your containers, as in the
following example. In the example, the Type column indicates two
Stripe
sets that reside on containers 0 and 1.
HPN0> container list
Executing: container list
Cluster Num Total Oth Stripe Scsi Partition
Dr Partner Label Type Size Ctr Size Usage C:ID:L Offset:Size
-- ------- ----- ------ ------ --- ------ ------- ------ -------------
0 0 Stripe 200MB 32KB None 2:01:0 64.0KB: 100MB
2:02:0 64.0KB: 100MB
0 1 Stripe 200MB 32KB None 2:03:0 64.0KB: 100MB
2:04:0 64.0KB: 100MB
To create a volume set of stripe sets, use the container create
mvolume command, as in the following example. In the example,
containers 0 and 1 are used to create a volume set of stripe sets.
