size=<number | max | min> Parameter (Required)
Table 6-18 indicates how to specify the size=<number | max | min>
parameter.
PDISKID=<connector:enclosureID:portID | connector:targetID>
Use this parameter to specify the physical disks to included in the virtual disk.
When reconfiguring a virtual disk, you must specify all physical disks to be
included in the reconfigured virtual disk. The physical disk specification applies
to physical disks in the original virtual disk and will continue to be in the
reconfigured virtual disk and to any new physical disks being added to the
reconfigured virtual disk. Some controllers allow you to remove a physical disk
from a virtual disk. In this case, do not specify the physical disk to be removed.
The pdisk=<PDISKID> parameter indicates a physical disk by specifying
either connector:enclosureID:portID or connector:targetID.

Parameter Specification
Description
size=<n> Use this specification to indicate a specific size for the virtual disk.
The virtual disk size may be specified in b (bytes), m (megabytes), or
g (gigabytes). For example, size=500m indicates that the virtual disk
should be 500 MB.
size=max To create a virtual disk that is the maximum size possible, specify
size=max. When creating a RAID-50 virtual disk, this parameter
must be specified as size=max.
size=min To create a virtual disk that is the minimum size possible, specify
size=min.
