Examples

Before promoting an array to a multilevel array, use the container
list command to obtain information about any existing arrays.
As the following example shows, there is an array 0 (a stripe set) on
this controller:
AAC0>container list
Executing: container list
Num Total Oth Stripe
Dr Label Type Size Ctr Size
-- ----- ------ ------ --- ------ ------- ------ -------------
0 Stripe 45.0MB
The following example promotes array 0 to a multilevel array:
AAC0>container promote 0
Executing: container promote 0
Use the container list command after using the container
promote command to display information about the array you just
promoted, as in the following example:
AAC0>container list
Executing: container list
Num Total Oth Stripe
Dr Label Type Size Ctr Size
-- ----- ------ ------ --- ------ ------- ------ -------------
0 Stripe 45.0MB
63 Volume 15.0MB
62 Volume 15.0MB
61 Volume 15.0MB
The following list describes the change to the display as the result of
promoting an array (in this example, array 0) with the container
promote command:
The Num Label column displays four container IDs: 0 (the
array that was promoted to a multilevel volume set), 63 (one of
the underlying volume sets), 62 (a second underlying volume
set), and 61 (a third underlying volume set).
This column also displays the label assigned to the array when
the array was created. If no label was assigned to the array
then no label appears in the column.
