Virtual disks are created using Command Console client’s Add Virtual Disk
Wizard as follows:

To start the Add Virtual Disk Wizard access the subsystem’s Storage
window, then click Add Virtual Disk from the Storage menu.

Select the Redundant Array of Independent Disks (RAID) levels, then
click Next. This selection will determine the type of virtual disk that you
will create. In this example, we will create a RAID 5 virtual disk and
partition it into two RAID 5 virtual disks of approximately equal
capacity.
