Dell PowerVault MD3260i - Manual (Page 308)

NOTE: Setting the addCapacity, addPhysicalDisks, or segmentSize parameter starts a long-running
operation that you cannot stop. These long-running operations are performed in the background and do not
prevent you from running other commands. To display the progress of long-running operations, use the show
virtualDisk actionProgress command.
Set Virtual Disk Attributes For A Disk Pool
Description
This command defines the properties for a virtual disk. You can use most parameters to define properties for one or
more virtual disks. You also can use some parameters to define properties for only one virtual disk. The syntax
definitions are separated to show which parameters apply to several virtual disks and which apply to only one virtual
disk. Also, the syntax for virtual disk mapping is listed separately.
NOTE: In configurations where disk groups consist of more than 32 virtual disks, the operation can result in host I/O
errors or internal RAID controller module reboots due to the expiration of the timeout period before the operation
completes. If you experience host I/O errors or internal RAID controller module reboots, bring the host to a
quiescent state and try the operation again.

Parameters
Parameter Description
