Miscellaneous

-g Specify drive group
This switch identifies the physical drive to be used for array
creation, deletion, or modification. It must always be the last switch
in the array creation command sequence and it must always be
followed by a drive address as discussed in Device Address Syntax on
page 4-2.
Multiple drive addresses on a command line must always be
separated by commas.
This switch can also be used to introduce a list of comma-separated
drive addresses in any command that uses such addresses. When
creating multilevel RAID 0/1 or 0/5 arrays, separate drive groups
with a plus sign (+). The number of drives supported are listed
below:
RAID 0
RAID 1
RAID 5
