Container Create Mmirror; Notes; Syntax; Parameters - Adaptec RAID 2810SA Software Reference Manual

container create mmirror

To create a multilevel array of mirror sets from a multilevel array of
single-partition volume sets and freespace, use the container
create mmirror command. Typically, you use this command after
promoting a volume set built from multiple partitions with the
container promote command.
The container create mmirror command is fully dynamic. If
you use this command, users will not see any change or experience
any interruption in service. However, performance may be reduced.

Notes

When creating a multilevel array of mirror sets on a NetWare server,
you specify the container IDs (as described in the Parameters
section) for the arrays from which you want to create the multilevel
mirror set. If NetWare is using any of these arrays, an appropriate
message displays. This message indicates that one or more of the
arrays you specified is in use by NetWare. The message directs you
to remove any NetWare volumes and partitions from these arrays.
You can then create a multilevel array of mirror sets on a NetWare
server.
After you create a multilevel array of mirror sets you can run the
list devices command on the NetWare console to verify its
creation and then create the necessary NetWare disk partitions and
volumes.
For information on how to create partitions and volumes, see the
appropriate NetWare documentation.
