<h1 class="topictitle1">Create a disk pool</h1>
<div><p>You can create a new independent disk pool and add disk units to it. You
can also add disk units to an existing disk pool. By default the New Disk
Pool wizard creates a protected disk pool that allows you to choose how you
want to protect the disk units. You can use device parity protection, mirrored
protection, or a combination of both. After the disk pool is created, you
will be prompted to start mirroring. This ensures that if you make changes
to your disk pool configuration, it will remain protected. You can also create
an unprotected disk pool by unchecking the protection option.</p>
<div class="note"><span class="notetitle">Note:</span> If you are creating a switchable disk pool, make sure you have completed
