cancel the back-ground initialization, run the following command:
racadm storage renamevd:<VD FQDD > -name <new_vd_name>
racadm storage capacityexpansion:<VD FQDD > -size <new size VD> -pdkey
<PD FQDDs>
racadm storage capacityexpansion:<VD FQDD> -size <new size>.

To convert the physical disk drives and assign or delete a hotspare. To scan physical disks that are
connected to a controller and detect problem, run the following command:
racadm storage converttononraid:<PD FQDD>
racadm storage converttoraid:<PD FQDD>
-mdtype <metadataType>
NOTE:
Convert to RAID or Non RAID is not supported on PERC 10 (RAID mode) and BOSS
controller cards. PERC10 in eHBA mode supports convert to RAID or Non-RAID.
NOTE: -mdtype is only supported for SWRAID controllers.
racadm storage hotspare:<PD FQDD> -assign yes -type dhs -vdkey: <VD
FQDD>
racadm storage hotspare:<PD FQDD> -assign yes type ghs
racadm storage hotspare:<PD FQDD> -assign no
racadm storage patrolread:<Controller FQDD> -state start|stop
NOTE:
If the assign option is no, you cannot add other options. If the assign option is yes
and if the -type option is not present, the global hotspare (ghs) is created by default.
