<h1 class="topictitle1">Create a dedicated independent disk pool</h1>
<div><p>Creating a dedicated (or stand-alone) independent disk pool does not require
as much planning and configuration as a switchable independent disk pool
requires. However, you should still take the time to make sure that your
future needs will not require you to be able to switch the independent disk
pool. </p>
<p>To create a dedicated independent disk pool, you can use the New Disk Pool
wizard in iSeries™ Navigator.
This will assist you in creating a new disk pool and adding disk units to
it. The New Disk Pool wizard also allows you to include unconfigured disk
units in a device parity set, and start device parity protection and disk
compression. As you add disk units, do not spread disk units that are in same
parity set across multiple disk pools, because failure to one parity set would
affect multiple disk pools.</p>
<div class="section"><h4 class="sectiontitle"> Create a dedicated independent disk pool</h4><p><a href="rzalyplanning.htm">iSeries Navigator requirements for disk management</a> .</p>
<p>To use the New Disk
Pool wizard to create a dedicated independent disk pool, follow these steps: </p>
<ol><li>In iSeries Navigator,
expand <span class="uicontrol">My Connections</span> (or your active environment). </li>
<li>Expand your iSeries <span class="menucascade"><span class="uicontrol">server</span> &gt; <span class="uicontrol">Configuration and Service</span> &gt; <span class="uicontrol">Hardware</span> &gt; <span class="uicontrol">Disk Units</span></span>.</li>
<li>Right-click <span class="uicontrol">Disk Pools</span> and select <span class="uicontrol">New
Disk Pool</span>. </li>
<li>Follow the wizard's instructions to add disk units to a new disk pool.</li>
<li>Print your disk configuration to have available in case of a recovery
situation. </li>
<li>Record the relationship between the independent disk pool name and number.</li>
</ol>
<div class="note"><span class="notetitle">Note:</span> Add independent disk pools when your server is fully restarted.
If you must use the New Disk Pool wizard in the dedicated service tools (DST)
mode, you need to create an associated device description for the independent
disk pool when the server is fully restarted. Use the <a href="../cl/crtdevasp.htm">Create Device Description (ASP)</a> (CRTDEVASP)
command to create the device description; name the device description and
resource name the same as you name the independent disk pool. You can use
the <a href="../cl/wrkdevd.htm">Work with
Device Descriptions</a> (WRKDEVD) command to verify that the device description
and independent disk pool name match.</div>
