INITIALIZE DISK-NAME SWITCHES
See “Initialization Switches” on page 2–25 for a description of the initialization
switches.
2. Verify the configuration by entering the following command:
SHOW DISK-NAME
3. Assign the disk a unit number to make it accessible by the hosts. See “Assigning Unit
Numbers and Unit Qualifiers” on page 5–19.
Configuring a Partition
1. Initialize the storageset or disk drive, specifying any desired switches:
INITIALIZE STORAGESET-NAME SWITCHES
or
INITIALIZE DISK-NAME SWITCHES
See “Initialization Switches” on page 2–25 for a description of the initialization
switches.
2. Create each partition in the storageset or disk drive by indicating the partition's size.
Also specify any desired switch settings:
CREATE_PARTITION STORAGESET-NAME SIZE=N SWITCHES
or
CREATE_PARTITION DISK-NAME SIZE=N SWITCHES
where N is the percentage of the disk drive or storageset that will be assigned to the
partition. Enter SIZE=LARGEST to let the controller assign the largest free space
available to the partition.
