Creating Storagesets 3–61
Example
The following example shows the commands you would use to
configure DISK10000 as a single-disk unit.
ADD DISK DISK10000 1 0 0
ADD UNIT D101 DISK10000
SHOW DEVICES
See Appendix B, “CLI Commands,” for further information on these
switches and values.
Partitioning a Storageset or Disk Drive
See “Planning Partitions,” page 3–37, for details about partitioning a
storage unit.
To partition a storageset or disk drive:
1. Add the storageset or disk drive to the controller’s list of storagesets and
specify the disk drives it contains. Use the following command:
ADD storageset-name DISK nnnnn DISK nnnnn
or
ADD DISK DISK nnnnn ptl-location
Do not split partitioned units across ports. They must be on a single
port. The subsystem assigns units 0-99 to Port 1; units 100-199 are
assigned to Port 2.
2. Initialize the storageset or disk drive. If you want to set any Initialize
switches, you must do so in this step. Use the following command:
INITIALIZE storageset-name switch
3. Create each partition in the storageset or disk drive by indicating the
partition’s size. Use the following command:
CREATE_PARTITION storageset-name SIZE= n
where n is the percentage of the disk drive or storageset that will be
assigned to the partition. Enter SIZE=LARGEST to let the controller
assign the largest free space available to the partition.
4. Verify the partitions, using the following command:
SHOW storageset-name
