Parameters
Parameter Description
physicalDisks The physical disks you want to assign to the disk pool.
Enclosure ID values are 0 to 99; drawer ID values are 0 to
4; slot ID values are 0 to 31.
NOTE: A disk pool must contain at least 11 physical
disks.
physicalDiskType Physical disk type value is sas. Enclose the physical disk
type values in parentheses. If the physical disk type is
specified, then all of the unassigned physical disks of that
type that are compatible with each other are used for the
creation of the disk pool.
physicalDiskCount The physicalDiskCount parameter limits the disk
pool candidates to the given number. Use this parameter
only when the physicalDiskType parameter is
specified.
reservePhysicalDiskCount The default value is automatically determined by the
controller. This value is specified in terms of the number of
physical disks to reserve in the disk pool for physical disk
failures or physical disk removals.
warningThreshold The percentage of storage capacity at which you receive
a warning alert that the disk pool is nearing full capacity.
Use integer values. For example, a value of 60 means 60
percent. The default value is 50.
Setting this parameter to 0 disables warning alerts.
If you set this to default, the warning alert threshold
value is determined by the controller firmware.
criticalPriority The default value is highest.
backgroundPriority The default value is low.
securityType The setting to specify the security level when creating the
disk pool. All virtual disk candidates for the disk pool have
the specified security type. These settings are valid:
• none—The virtual disk candidates are not
secure.
• capable—The virtual disk candidates are
capable of having security set, but security has
not been enabled.
• enabled—The virtual disk candidates have
security enabled.
The default value is none.
