-str or strict <number>
Strict (-str parameter) is the percentage
of expected array disk utilization.
Example:
A:> raidcfg -ctrl -ac=
cvd -c=0 -ad=0:0,0:1 -
r=1 -str=20
If the unused portion of an array disk is
greater than the mentioned percentage,
raidcfg aborts.
For SCSI controllers, the value of LUN
should always be 0.
For SAS controllers, the value of
enclosure can be non-zero, in which
case you must specify values for
channel, target, and enclosure.

-sz or -size <number>
Sets the maximum size of the virtual disk
in MB or GB. A valid argument is a
number representing the maximum size
for the virtual disk. The -szoption is
optional and can be the added to the
command line in any order after the
mandatory option combination.
The minimum virtual disk size that you
can create for various controllers is as
follows:
• For PERC 5 controllers:
– RAID 0: 100 MB
– RAID 1: 100 MB
– RAID 5: 100 MB
• For PERC 6 controllers:
– RAID 0: 100 MB
– RAID 1: 100 MB
– RAID 5: 100 MB
– RAID 6: 100 MB
– RAID 60: 100 MB
• For PERC 7, PERC 8, and PERC 9
controllers:
– RAID 0: 100 MB
– RAID 1: 100 MB
– RAID 5: 100 MB
– RAID 6: 100 MB
– RAID 10: 100 MB
– RAID 50: 100 MB
– RAID 60: 100 MB
