HP Storage Provisioning Manager (SPM) version 2.1 User Guide

“Unsupported” may be placed in the Value element of a MapItem to indicate that the RAID level

indicated in the Index element of that MapItem is not supported by the StorageArray.

RAIDLevel

NoRAID, RAID0, RAID1, RAID1+0, RAID3, RAID4, RAID5 RAID5+0, RAID6, RAID6+0

Arrays

The Arrays element of a StorageArrayDefinition contains a sequence of zero or more StorageArray

objects. StorageArray objects are described in StorageArray. Although the XML schema allows

an empty sequence of StorageArray objects, such a case is ignored by SPM. To be meaningful,

a StorageArrayDefinition should contain at least one StorageArray object. Each StorageArray

object represents one instance of the type of storage array described by the StorageArrayDefinition.

Resource

Resource objects inherit from the Entity class, and define the UUID, DisplayName, ManagementURL,

and Tags attribute. A Resource represents an entity that will be displayed and managed within

SPM, including storage arrays, storage pools, and volumes.
