Do not mix Renumber and Join operations in the same script, because SSA Scripting does not update its
internal state after a renumber. If other commands are mixed with Renumber, commands targeting specific
volumes might target the incorrect volume.
Repeat
The value you enter for this option specifies the number of times that SSA is to repeat this logical drive
configuration.
Use one of the following values:

N—In Configure mode, SSA creates N new logical drives.

MAX—SSA creates the maximum number of logical drives possible. The number of drives created
depends on the number of existing drives and the maximum number of logical drives supported by the
controller.
You must specify the logical drive ID as Next. This Size option controls the size of each logical drive, or if the
size is set to MAX, the size of the volumes is set to consume all available space on the array.
SetBootVolumePrimary
This option sets the current logical volume to be the primary boot volume on the current controller through
the command Enable. This option is not supported on all array controllers.
SetBootVolumeSecondary
This option sets the current logical volume to be the secondary boot volume on the current controller through
the command Enable. This option is not supported on all array controllers.
Sectors
This option specifies the number of sectors that are to comprise each track. Enter 32 to disable MaxBoot or
63 to enable it.

For new logical drives, the default setting is 63 if the logical drive is larger than 502 GB. Otherwise, the
default setting is 32.

For an existing logical drive, the default setting is the existing setting.
Logical drive performance is likely to decrease with MaxBoot enabled.
Size
This parameter specifies the size of the logical drive.
Use the following values to set the size:

N—The size in MB

MAX—Uses all available unused space in the array for the logical drive. This value is the default.

MAXMBR—Creates the largest size of volume supportable by a 32-bit MBR (2TiB)
In Reconfigure mode, the default setting is the existing size of the logical drive. If you enter a larger value,
SSA extends the logical drive to the new size if there is unused drive capacity on the same array, as long as
the operating system supports logical drive extension. You cannot reduce the size of the logical drive.
CAUTION: Back up all data before extending a logical drive.
SizeBlocks
This option specifies the size of the logical drive in 512-byte blocks. Use this option to set an exact size
