Example Syntax
To reset the configuration on controller 1, enter:
omconfig storage controller action=resetconfig
controller=1
omconfig Create Virtual Disk
The Dell OpenManage Online Help provides additional information about
creating virtual disks.
The omconfig syntax for creating a virtual disk has several parameters. You
must specify the following parameters:
• Controller (controller=id)
• RAID level (raid=<c| r0| r1| r1c| r5|r6| r10| r50|r60>)
• Size (size=<number | max | min>)
•
Physical disk is specified as either :
For SCSI, SATA, and ATA Controllers
pdisk=connector:enclosureID:portID
where connector:enclosureID:portID is the connector number, enclosure number,
and port number.
For example
pdisk=0:1:2
For SAS Controllers
pdisk=connector:targetID
where connectorID:targetID is the connector number and the physical disk number.
For example:
pdisk=0:2
Storage Management supplies default values for any of the other parameters
that you do not specify.
