container Commands
/scrub{=boolean}
Specifies whether to set up the parity during RAID-5 creation
by scrubbing the RAID 5 array. If you set this switch to TRUE,
the command sets up the parity by scrubbing the RAID 5
array. Although the drive is immediately available, it is not
parity-protected until the background scrub action completes.
This switch defaults to TRUE.
If you set this switch to FALSE, the command will set up
parity by clearing the RAID 5 array. In other words, setting /
scrub=FALSE enables the same behavior as /clear=TRUE.
This switch is supported on Windows and NetWare.
For UNIX, the RAID 5 array is always scrubbed.
/wait{=boolean}
Specifies whether the command prompt returns only after the
parity-protect operation completes. If you set this switch to
TRUE, the command prompt returns only after the RAID 5
array is parity-protected. The scrub or zero action completes.
The default is FALSE
; the command prompt returns
immediately before the parity-protect operation completes.
Examples
The following example creates a RAID 5 array with the following
characteristics:
■ Creates the RAID 5 array on four disk drives connected to
channel 0
■ Specifies a freespace of 10 MB
■ Uses the scrub method
■ Indicates the command prompt return only after the scrub
operation completes
■ Specifies a stripe size of 64 KB
■ Accepts the default label
