NOTE: In configurations where disk groups consist of more than 32 virtual disks, the operation can
result in host I/O errors or internal RAID controller module reboots due to the expiration of the
timeout period before the operation completes. If you experience host I/O errors or internal RAID
controller module reboots, bring the host to a quiescent state I/O and try the operation again.
Syntax Applicable To One Or More Virtual Disks
start increaseVolCapacity virtualDisk = virtualDiskName incrementalCapacity =
incrementalCapacity [addDrives = (drive-spec-list)]
Parameter
Parameter Description
addPhysicalDisks
The setting to add new physical disks to the virtual
disk. For high-capacity expansion enclosures,
specify the enclosure ID value, the drawer ID value,
and the slot ID value for the physical disk. For low-
capacity expansion enclosures, specify the
enclosure ID value and the slot ID value for the
physical disk. Enclosure ID values are 0 to 99.
Drawer ID values are 0 to 4. Slot ID values are 0 to
31. Enclose the enclosure ID value, drawer ID
value, and the slot ID value in parentheses. Use this
parameter with the addCapacity parameter if you
need to specify additional physical disks to
accommodate the new size.
Each disk pool must be created from a minimum
of 11 physical disks specified. There is no upward
limit of physical disks supported in a single disk
pool, but the number cannot exceed the number
of physical disks supported on the storage array.
Load Storage Array DBM Database
Description
This command uploads a Database Management (DBM) database image from a file or from cache. This
command restores a storage array DBM database to the exact configuration that existed when the
database image was captured using the save storageArray dbmDatabase command. The data in a
file can be just RAID configuration data or all data, including data for RAID configuration, disk groups and
disk pools. The data in a cache location always includes all data.
Before using this command with the file option, you must first obtain a validator string (a security code)
from your Technical Support representative. To obtain a validator, use the
save storageArray
dbmValidator command to generate an XML file that contains validator information.
Syntax
load storageArray dbmDatabase
