Operations 86
When using an HP Smart Array G6 or G7 controller, some RAID levels require SAAP ("
" on
). RAID levels supported in a Caching Local Volume are limited by the firmware.
Renumber
This option renumbers the logical drive to N.
Typically used after a Join command, this option ensures the proper logical volume numbering is set, for
example, the boot volume is ID 1.
Do not mix Renumber and Join operations in the same script, because HP SSA Scripting does not update
its internal state after a renumber. If other commands are mixed with Renumber, commands targeting
specific volumes might target the incorrect volume.
Repeat
The value you enter for this option specifies the number of times that HP SSA is to repeat this logical drive
configuration.
Use one of the following values:
•
N—In Configure mode, HP SSA creates N new logical drives.
•
MAX—HP SSA creates the maximum number of logical drives possible. The number of drives created
depends on the number of existing drives and the maximum number of logical drives supported by the
controller.
You must specify the logical drive ID as Next. This Size option controls the size of each logical drive, or if
the size is set to MAX, the size of the volumes is set to consume all available space on the array.
SetBootVolumePrimary
This option sets the current logical volume to be the primary boot volume on the current controller through the
command Enable. This option is not supported on all array controllers.
SetBootVolumeSecondary
This option sets the current logical volume to be the secondary boot volume on the current controller through
the command Enable. This option is not supported on all array controllers.
Sectors
This option specifies the number of sectors that are to comprise each track. Enter 32 to disable MaxBoot or
63 to enable it.
•
For new logical drives, the default setting is 63 if the logical drive is larger than 502 GB. Otherwise, the
default setting is 32.
•
For an existing logical drive, the default setting is the existing setting.
Logical drive performance is likely to decrease with MaxBoot enabled.
Size
This parameter specifies the size of the logical drive.
Use the following values to set the size:
