Figure 14 Disk Man agement utility
NOTE:
• When the Disk Management utility is accessed, the Remote Desktop connection assumes a dedicated
mode and can only be used to manage disks and volumes on the server. Accessing to another
page during an open session closes the session.
• It may take a few moments for the Remote Desktop connection session to log off when closing Disk
Management.
DiskPart utilit y
The following information applies to all models of the HP ProLiant storage server.
DiskPart.exe is a text-mode command interpreter that enables the adm inistrator to manage disks,
partitions, or volumes.
When using the list commands, an asterisk (*) appears next to the object with focus. Select an object by
its number or drive letter, such as disk 0, partition 1, volume 3, or volume C.
When selecting an object, the focus remains on that object until a different object is selected. For
example, if the focus is set on disk 0 and volume 8 on disk 2 is selected, the focus shifts from disk 0
to disk 2, volume 8. Some commands automatically change the focus. For example, when creating a
new partition, the focus automatically switches to the new partition.
Focus can only be given to a partition on the selected disk. When a p artition has focus, the related
volume (if any) also has focus. When a volume has focus, the related disk and partition also have focus, if
the volume maps to a single specific partition. If this is not the case, focus on the disk and partition is lost.
