F3726, F3211, F3174, R5135, R3816-HP Firewalls and UTM Devices System Management and Maintenance Command Reference-6PW100

Usage guidelines

If partition-number is specified, the storage medium is divided into the specified number of partitions;

otherwise, partitioning is performed in an interactive way.

The device automatically formats each partition after partitioning is completed and all data on the

storage medium is lost after this command is successfully executed.

Before removing a partitioned storage medium, unmount all the partitions. Otherwise, the file system on

the storage medium might be damaged.

The command does not support repartitioning of a partition.

The following matrix shows the values for the medium-name argument on different firewalls and UTM

devices:
