Creating a Virtual Disk

To create the virtual disk:

Find out the RAID configurations in the system using the

GetRAIDLevels()

method in DCIM_RAIDService class.

Select the physical disk(s) on which you need to create the virtual disk

based on the IDs gathered using the

GetAvailableDisks()

method in

DCIM_RAIDService class.

Check the available sizes and default virtual disk parameters for the

required RAID level and physical disk using the

CheckVDValues()

method in DCIM_RAIDService class.

NOTE: The CheckVDValues() method does not show the Span details

correctly for RAID-10.

Construct the input parameters before you invoke the

CreateVirtualDisk()

method.

Invoke the

CreateVirtualDisk()

method.

Check the output parameters (return code values) for the selected

method. The InstanceID of the pending virtual disk is an output

parameter and the return code value is returned if the method is

successful. For example, if the method is successful, code 0 is returned.

Before invoking the

CreateTargetedConfigJob()

method, construct the

input parameters and use the correct Fully Qualified Device Descriptor

(FQDD) for the controller.

Invoke the

CreateTargetedConfigJob()

method to apply the pending

values.

Query the status of the jobID output using the job control profile

methods.

The system is rebooted based on the time specified.

Enumerate the

DCIM_VirtualDiskView

class to view the virtual disk

created earlier.
