16.18.6 Creating a Cachecade Virtual Disk-CreateVirtualDisk()
The CreateVirtualDisk() method is used to create a Cachecade virtual disk on the targeted controller.
This method internally creates a RAID-0 virtual disk.The creation process is the same as explained in
Section 16.18.5. In this scenario, CreateVirtualDisk() method only takes VDPropNameArray-
VDPropValueArray pairs mentioned below.
