Modify Disk Pool

Description

This command adds capacity to a disk pool or changes the RAID controller module ownership for the entire disk pool. These two operations are mutually exclusive.

Syntax

set diskPool [diskPoolName] (addPhysicalDisks=[enclosureID1,drawerID1,slotID1 ... enclosureIDn,drawerIDn,slotIDn] | addCapacity=(diskPoolCapacity))
                                 [owner=(0 | 1)]

Parameters

Parameter Description
addDrives Identifies multiple physical disks to add to the disk pool. Each disk pool must be created from a minimum of 11 physical disks specified. There is no upward limit of physical disks supported in a single disk pool, but the number cannot exceed the number of physical disks supported on the storage array.
addCapacity Use the addCapacity parameter to specify the amount of storage and automatically select physical disks to meet that capacity.
owner The RAID controller module that owns the disk pool. Valid RAID controller module identifiers are 0 or 1, where 0 is the RAID controller module in slot 0, and 1 is the RAID controller module in slot 1. If you do not specify an owner, the RAID controller module firmware determines the owner.
