Parameters
Parameter Description
allVirtualDisks
The properties for all virtual disks in the storage
array.
virtualDisk or virtualDisks The name of the specific virtual disk for which you
want to define properties. (You can enter more
than one virtual disk name if you use the
virtualDisks parameter.) Enclose the virtual disk
name in double quotation marks (" ") inside of
square brackets ([ ]).
virtualDisk
The World Wide Identifier (WWID) of the virtual disk
for which you are setting properties. You can use
the WWID instead of the virtual disk name to
identify the virtual disk. Enclose the WWID in angle
brackets (< >).
NOTE: When running this command, do not
use colon separators in the WWID.
addCapacity
The setting to increase the storage size (capacity)
of the virtual disk for which you are defining
properties. Size is defined in units of bytes, KB, MB,
GB, or TB. The default value is bytes. This
parameter is not valid for thin virtual disks.
NOTE: The maximum capacity is 250 GB.
addPhysicalDisks
The setting to add new physical disks to the virtual
disk. For dense expansion enclosures, specify the
enclosure ID value, the drawer ID value, and the
slot ID value for the physical disk. For non-dense
expansion enclosures, specify the enclosure ID
value and the slot ID value for the physical disk.
Enclosure ID values are 0 to 99. Drawer ID values
are 1 to 5. Slot ID values are 0 to 31. Enclose the
enclosure ID value, drawer ID value, and the slot ID
value in parentheses. Use this parameter with the
addCapacity parameter if you need to specify
additional physical disks to accommodate the new
size. This parameter is not valid for disk pool virtual
disks or for thin virtual disks.
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.
