HP StorageWorks Clustered File System 3.6.0 Windows Storage Server Edition Administration Guide (403103-005, January 2008)

Chapter 9: Configure PSFS Filesystems 101
NOTE: The Create a Filesystem window identifies volumes by their HP
Clustered File System names such as psd1p2. To match these
names to their local Windows names, open the Disk Info window
(select the server on the Servers tab, right-click, and then select
View Local Disk Info).
NOTE: If you selected a subdevice that is associated with an unimported
volume, when you click OK to create the filesystem you will see a
message reporting that the subdevice contains a volume
signature. The message asks whether you want to destroy the
affected unimported dynamic volume and reuse this subdevice in
the new filesystem you are creating. Be sure that you do not need
the unimported dynamic volume before doing this. If the
unimported volume associated with the subdevice is in a
“duplicate” state, the attempt to destroy the volume will fail. See
“Unimportable Volumes” on page 90 for more information
Filesystem Options
Click the Options button to see the Filesystem Options window, which
lists the available options for the filesystem.
The General tab allows you to set the block size (either 4 or 8 KB). If you
will be using MxDB for SQL Server, the block size must be 8 KB.
