If you click Deploy, using the HP Storage System Scripting Utility (SSSU) or the subsystem VDS hardware
provider, Simple SAN Connection Manager initializes the subsystem, creates disk groups or storage
pools and LUNs, and presents those LUNs to the host(s) as specified in the deployment summary shown
in
Figure
96.
If the selected subsystem already has logical disks containing data, Simple SAN Connection Manager
displays a message warning that the storage subsystem will be uninitialized and all logical disks and
their data will be deleted.

To acknowledge the warning, uninitialize the storage subsystem, delete all logical disks, and start the
Storage Deployment wizard, type YES, and then click OK. To abandon this deployment, click Cancel.
If the configuration completes successfully, the wizard informs you of the results. If the partition is
created from the LUNs, it lists the volume name and drive letter assigned for each LUN, as shown in

Configuration using a customized deployment

Advanced users may create a customized deployment to configure the storage subsystem. To use a
customized deployment, you must have extensive knowledge of the subsystem's features and capabilities.
For example, you must know the number of physical disks, the number of disks required for a disk group or
storage pool, the LUN types, and the Vraid or RAID types allowed for the LUN.
CAUTION:
Attempt custom deployment only if you are an advanced user with extensive knowledge about
the storage subsystem that you want to configure.
IMPORTANT:
A maximum of 16 virtual disks (disk groups) are allowed per controller.
All LUNs on a virtual disk must be of the same RAID level.
You cannot combine SAS and SATA drives in the same virtual disk.
The following limitations apply to customized deployment for the MSA 2000 family:
