Configuring a Storage Pool for Disk Drives
Configuration tasks for storage pools include:
• “Adding a Storage Pool” (page 137)
• “Adding a Disk to a Storage Pool” (page 138)
• “Removing a Disk From a Storage Pool” (page 138)
• “Altering Storage Pool Attribute Values” (page 139)
• “Deleting a Storage Pool” (page 140)
Adding a Storage Pool
Use the “ADD POOL Command” (page 218) to add a storage pool to the system configuration
database.
Considerations for ADD POOL
• TMF must be running on the system when adding a storage pool.
• The $ZSMS SMF Master Process must be in the STARTED state.
Example
1. Configure the pool process:
-> ADD POOL $POOL00, SENDTO STORAGE, PRIMARYCPU 6, &
-> BACKUPCPU 7
2. Verify the configuration:
-> INFO $POOL00
3. Start the pool. See “Starting a Storage Pool”.
Example: Adding a Similar Pool Process Using the LIKE Attribute
To add another pool process similar to an existing process, use the LIKE attribute:
-> ADD POOL $POOL01, SENDTO STORAGE, LIKE $POOL00
