Examples

Before creating a multilevel array of mirror sets, use the container
list command to obtain information about any existing arrays. As
the following example shows, array 0 is a volume set that consists of
two underlying volume sets created with the container promote
command:
AAC0>container list
Executing: container list
Num Total Oth Stripe
Dr Label Type Size Ctr Size
-- ----- ------ ------ --- ------ ------- ------ -------------
F: 0 Volume 30MB
63 Volume 15MB
62 Volume 15MB
The following example shows how to create a multilevel array of
mirror sets with the following characteristics:
The array specified (0) is a multilevel array of volume sets that
was previously created with the container promote
command.
The freespace from devices (0,4,0), and (0,5,0) are used to
mirror the underlying volume sets.
The default I/O delay is taken.
The multilevel array of mirror sets is created asynchronously.
AAC0>container create mmirror 0 (0,4,0) (0,5,0)
Executing: container create mmirror 0
(CHANNEL=0,ID=4,LUN=0) (CHANNEL=0,ID=5,LUN=0)
As the command executes, note the title bar of the DOS window
displays the status of the command. For example:
Stat:OK!Task:101,Func:MCR Ctr:63,State:RUN 97.2%
See page 3-10 for detailed information on the status information that
the command displays in the title bar as it executes the task.
Use the container list command after using the container
create mmirror command to display information about the
multilevel array of mirror sets:
AAC0>container list
Executing: container list
Num Total Oth Stripe
