IO requests so that host IO has a higher priority. This mode
creates new work queues where these jobs can be assigned with
a lower priority.
Mode 704 = ON:
Copy processing requested is registered into a newly created
queue so that the processing is scheduled with lower priority than
host I/O.
Mode 704 = OFF: (Default)
Copy processing requested is not registered into a newly created
queue. Only the existing queue is used.
Note:
If the PDEV is highly loaded, the priority of Read/Write processing
made by BC, VM, Snapshot, Compatible FlashCopy or Resync
may become lower. As a consequence the copy speed may be
slower.

When a parity group is uninstalled or installed, the LED of the
drive for uninstallation is not illuminated, and the instruction

are unavailable to select.
Mode 721 = OFF (default):
When a parity group is uninstalled or installed, the operation is
as before: the LED of the drive is illuminated, and the drive must
be unmounted and remounted.
Notes:
1. When the RAID level or emulation type is changed for the
existing parity group, this option should be applied only if the
drive mounted position remains the same at the time of the
parity group uninstallation or installation.
2. After the operation using this option is completed, the mode
must be set back to OFF; otherwise, the LED of the drive to be
removed will not be illuminated at subsequent parity group
uninstalling operations.
