Configuring Default Disk Behavior
On the Default Disk Behavior page, you can specify the default action when a new disk is added to
the JS100 unit.
Caution! The JS100 unit claims a disk before using it. The claiming process marks the disk
as being used by the JS100 unit and wipes any preexisting data on the disk.
To set the default disk behavior, click one of the following in the New Disk Action list.
1
Take No Action. In this case, nothing happens by default. You must manually configure how
space on the new disk is to be allocated.
2
Create or Expand Primary Pool Across All Disks. In this action, all new disks are claimed and
their storage space is added to the primary pool and share. After you click this action in the New
Disk Action list, you must type the name of the primary disk pool in the Primary Disk Pool Name
box and type the name of the primary share in the Primary Share Name box.
3
Create or Mirror Primary Pool. This action specifies that a primary pool be created when the first
disk is added. When the second disk is added, a mirror is created for the primary pool and share.
After you click this action, you must type the name of the base disk pool in the Base Disk Pool
Name box and type the name of the base share in the Base Share Name box.
4
Create one pool per disk. In this action, a new base pool and base share are created. After you
click this action, you must type the name of the base disk pool in the Base Disk Pool Name box
and type the name of the base share in the Base Share Name box. The names of the pool and
share for each disk are created by appending a number to these names. For example, if you type
MyPool and MyShare, the JS100 unit uses MyPool1 and MyShare1 for the first disk, MyPool2 and
MyShare2 for the second disk, and so on.
