Name Type Description
● 12: VPREP
● 13: VDRAIN
● 14: VRECV
● 16: RBAL
current-job-completion string
● 0%–99%: Percent complete of running job.
● (blank): No job is running (job has completed).
num-array-partitions uint32 Number of volumes in the disk group.
largest-free-partition-space string The largest contiguous space in which a volume can be created. The value is
formatted to use the current base, precision, and units.
largest-free-partition-space-
numeric
uint64 Unformatted largest-free-partition-space value in blocks.
num-drives-per-low-level-
array
uint8
● For a RAID-10 or RAID-50 disk group, the number of disks in each subgroup.
● For other RAID levels, 1.
num-expansion-partitions uint8 Not used.
num-partition-segments uint8 Number of free segments available for expansion of volumes.
new-partition-lba string Maximum number of blocks that could be allocated to a newly created volume.
The value is formatted to use the current base, precision, and units. Expanding a
volume in the same disk group will reduce this amount.
new-partition-lba-numeric uint64 Unformatted new-partition-lba value in blocks.
array-drive-type string Type of disks used in the disk group.
● SAS: Enterprise SAS
● SAS MDL: Midline SAS.
● sSAS: SAS SSD.
● MIXED: Mixture of enterprise SAS and midline SAS disks
array-drive-type-numeric uint32 Numeric equivalents for array-drive-type values.
● 1: MIXED
● 4: SAS
● 8: sSAS
● 11: SAS MDL
disk-description string Disk description.
● SAS: Enterprise SAS spinning disk.
● SAS MDL: Midline SAS spinning disk.
● SSD SAS: SAS solid-state disk.
disk-description-numeric uint32 Numeric equivalents for description values.
● 4: SAS
● 8: SSD SAS
● 11: SAS MDL
is-job-auto-abortable string
● false: The current job must be manually aborted before you can delete the
disk group.
● true: The current job will automatically abort if you delete the disk group.
is-job-auto-abortable-numeric uint32 Numeric equivalents for is-job-auto-abortable values.
● 0: false
● 1: true
serial-number string Disk group serial number.
blocks string The number of blocks, whose size is specified by the blocksize property.
