<h1 class="topictitle1">Add a disk unit or disk pool</h1>
|
||
|
|
<div><p>The Add Disk Unit and New Disk Pool wizards save you time by bundling several
|
||
|
|
time-consuming configuration functions into one efficient process. They also
|
||
|
|
take the guesswork out of disk unit configuration because they understand
|
||
|
|
the capabilities of your system and only offer valid choices. For instance,
|
||
|
|
the wizard does not list the option to start compression unless your server
|
||
|
|
has that capability.</p>
|
||
|
|
<p>The Add Disk Unit wizard allows you to use an existing disk pool to add
|
||
|
|
new or nonconfigured disk units. When you choose to add disk units to a <em>protected</em> disk
|
||
|
|
pool, the wizard forces you to include the disk units in <a href="rzalydpp.htm">device parity protection</a> or to add enough disk units
|
||
|
|
of the same capacity to start <a href="rzalymirrorconcept.htm">mirrored
|
||
|
|
protection</a>. The wizard also gives you the option of balancing data
|
||
|
|
across the disk pool or starting disk compression if these are permissible
|
||
|
|
actions for your system configuration. You decide which options to choose
|
||
|
|
so that the operation is tailored to your system.</p>
