Changing the Virtual Disk Modification Priority
You can specify the modification priority setting for a single virtual disk or
multiple virtual disks on a storage array.
Guidelines to change the modification priority of a virtual disk:
• If more than one virtual disk is selected, the modification priority defaults
to the lowest priority. The current priority is shown only if a single virtual
disk is selected.
• Changing the modification priority by using this option modifies the
priority for the selected virtual disks.
