container Commands
As the command executes, note that the title bar of the MS-DOS
window displays the status of the command. For example:
Stat:OK!Task:101,Func:R5S Ctr:0,State:RUN 84.6%
For further details on status information, see page 1-13.
On UNIX systems, the message displayed after you execute the
container create raid5 command includes the root special
file associated with the newly created RAID 5 array.
Use the container list command after using the container
create raid5
command to display information about the RAID 5
array.

The following list describes the columns that contain information
as a result of creating a RAID 5 array with the container
create raid5
command:
■ The Num Label column displays the ID number of the newly
created RAID 5 array, which in the example is 0.
If you specify a label when creating the RAID 5 array, it
appears in this column. Because no label was specified when
the RAID 5 array was created, no label appears in the column.
On UNIX systems, the root special file associated with the
RAID 5 array also appears in this column.
■ The Type column displays RAID-5 to indicate that the newly
created array is a RAID 5 array.
■ The Total Si z e column displays the total size of the freespace
available. In this example, 40.0 MB of freespace was specified,
which means that this column displays 30.0 MB as available.
■ The Stripe Size column displays the stripe size you specified as
the
stripe_size parameter, which in the example is 64 KB.
