Disk Attribute Descriptions

POOL $pool

(for virtual disks) is the name of the storage pool process associated with the

virtual disk.

The storage pool process must be in the STARTED state. In addition, the

CATALOGLOCATION volume (page 14-31) of that storage pool process must be in

the STARTED state and enabled in TMF.

POOL { $pool | EXCLUDE }

(for magnetic disks and profiles) specifies whether a physical volume is a member

of a specified storage pool.

See Section 9, Configuring and Managing Storage Pools for Magnetic Disks.

PRIMARYCPU number

is the processor in which the primary IOP starts.

The process must be in the STOPPED state or not running for you to alter this

attribute.

PRIMARYDEVICEID { number | ( shelf,bay ) }

(45xx and M8xxx disks only) is the device ID of either a nonmirrored disk or of

the primary disk of a mirrored volume.

For 45xx disks:

For M8xxx disks in an FCDM:

If you configure a disk volume for use with an FCSA connected to an ESS, you

cannot specify PRIMARYDEVICEID.

Note. This attribute is required when adding virtual disks. It has no default and it cannot

be used with the ALTER DISK command.

$pool is the name of the storage pool to which the physical volume

is being added.

EXCLUDE removes a physical volume from a storage pool.

Note. This attribute is not valid for the PROFILE object.

number

Is the unit number of the disk. number is in the range 1

through 7.

shelf Is the FCDM’s shelf number. shelf is in the range 1

through 4.

bay Is the number of the disk. bay is in the range 1 through 14.
