- Reivindique o volume de armazenamento desejado:
VPlexcli:/> storage-volume claim --name testA -d VPD83T3:6006048000028746073753594d303035/
Claimed 1 of 1 storage-volumes.
- Confirme se o volume de armazenamento foi reivindicado com sucesso:

- Crie uma extensão a partir dos volumes de armazenamento reivindicados disponíveis:
VPlexcli:/> extent create testA,Test
- Confirme a extensão criada com sucesso:
VPlexcli:/> ll /clusters/cluster-1/storage-elements/extents
/clusters/cluster-1/storage-elements/extents:

------------------------------------------------ ------------------ -------- -------
extent_Test_1 Test 8.43G claimed
extent_testA_1 testA 8.43G claimed
- Crie um dispositivo local:
VPlexcli:/> local-device create --name testA_vol --geometry raid-1 --extents /clusters/cluster-1/storage-elements/extents/extent_testA_1,/clusters/cluster-1/storage-elements/extents/extent_Test_1 --force
- Confirme se o dispositivo local foi criado com sucesso:
VPlexcli:/> ll -p **/devices

No momento, o volume virtual é exibido como não exportado, pois não foi adicionado a uma visualização de armazenamento.
- Verifique as visualizações de armazenamento disponíveis para adicionar volume virtual a:
VPlexcli:/> ll **/storage-views

VPlexcli:/> export storage-view addvirtualvolume --view DELLPR510-F --virtual-volumes testA_vol_vol
- Confirme se o volume foi criado com sucesso:
