Claimed 1 of 1 storage-volumes.
- 确认存储卷声明成功：

- 从可用的已声明存储卷创建扩展区：
VPlexcli:/> extent create testA,Test
- 确认扩展区创建成功：
VPlexcli:/> ll /clusters/cluster-1/storage-elements/extents

------------------------------------------------ ------------------ -------- -------
extent_Test_1 Test 8.43G claimed
extent_testA_1 testA 8.43G claimed
- 创建本地设备：
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
- 确认本地设备创建成功：

- 创建虚拟卷：
VPlexcli:/> virtual-volume create -r testA_vol
- 确认虚拟卷创建成功：

- 将虚拟卷添加到所需的存储视图：
VPlexcli:/> export storage-view addvirtualvolume --view DELLPR510-F --virtual-volumes testA_vol_vol
- 确认卷创建成功：
