4.19.2 GPT disk for Windows 2003/2008
Windows 2003/2008 supports the basic disk called “GPT disk” used GUID partition instead of
the Signature. The “GPT disk” also can be used as SVOL of the BC, So RAID Manager supports
the way for saving/restoring the GUID DiskId of the GPT Basic disk to the inqraid command.
„
gvinfex option (Only Windows 2003/2008)
This option retrieves the LUN signature and volume layout information by way of a raw
device file provided via STDIN or arguments, and saves it in a system disk file with the
following format:
\WindowsDirectory\VOLssss_llll.ini
where ssss = serial#
where llll = LDEV#
Normally, this option is used to save the Disk signature/ GUID DiskId and volume layout
information once, after it has been written on a potential (and before its paircreate).
The user does not need to directly view these host files.
[For example] … saves the volume information for all physical drives
D:\HORCM\etc>inqraid $Phys -gvinfex -CLI
\\.\PhysicalDrive10:
# Harddisk10 -> [VOL61459_448_DA7C0D91] [OPEN-V ]
\\.\PhysicalDrive11:
# Harddisk11 -> [VOL61459_449_D4CB5F17-2ADC-4FEE-8650-D3628379E8F5] [OPEN-
V ]
\\.\PhysicalDrive12:
# Harddisk12 -> [VOL61459_450_9ABDCB73-3BA1-4048-9E94-22E3798C3B61] [OPEN-
V ]

-svinfex[=PTN] option (Only Windows 2003)
This option writes LUN signature/GUID DiskId and volume layout information (that had
previously been saved in a system disk file) by way of a raw device file provided via
STDIN or arguments.
This option gets a Serial# and LDEV# of the RAID storage system for the target device
using SCSI Inquiry, and writes the signature/ GUID DiskId and volume layout information
from the VOLssss_llll.ini file to the target device.
This option will work correctly (even if Harddisk# changes due to configuration changes)
because the signature/ GUID DiskId and volume layout information is associated the
array Serial# and LDEV# (not Harddisk#).
[=PTN]
This option specifies a string pattern useable to select only the pertinent output lines
being provide from STDIN. If used as shown, only the pairdisplay output lines containing
“Harddisk” would be used to cause signature writing.
