HP storageworks HSG80 Reference Manual page 135

• Specify NOTRANSPORTABLE for all disks used in RAIDsets, stripesets,
mirrorsets, and sparesets.
• Transportable disks do not contain any metadata or restricted areas on the
disk. Therefore, transportable disks forfeit the advantage metadata provides.
• Transportable disks can be moved to a non StorageWorks environment with
their data intact.
• If you specify the NOTRANSPORTABLE switch and there is no metadata on
the unit, the unit must be initialized.
• If you specify TRANSPORTABLE for a disk that was originally initialized as a
NOTRANSPORTABLE, you should initialize the disk.
• StorageWorks recommends you avoid specifying TRANSPORTABLE unless
transportability of the device or media is imperative and there is no other way
to accomplish moving the data.
NOTE: Specifying TRANSPORTABLE should be avoided unless transportability of the device or
media is imperative and there is no other way to accomplish moving the data.
