CCI adopts the following way with this point in view:
The user must save the signature and volume layout information to the system disk by
using "inqraid -gvinf" command, after an SVOL has been set the signature and new
partition by the Windows disk management.
The user will be able to put back the signature by setting the signature and volume
layout information to an SVOL that was saved to the system disk by using "inqraid -
svinf" command, after splits the SVOL. If the SVOL is created with "Noread" option and
the system is rebooted, then the system will not be able to create a device object
(\Device\HarddiskVolume#) and Volume{guid} for SVOL, but "-svinf" option will create a
Device object (\Device\HarddiskVolume#) and Volume{guid} without using the Windows
disk management.
Note: The Cluster Disk Driver does not permit to use the "Noread" volume as "Device is not
ready" at the boot time, since the Cluster Disk Driver is Non-Plug and Play Driver. The user
will be able to verify this situation using inqraid command as follows:
inqraid $Phy -CLI
DEVICE_FILE PORT
Harddisk0 -
Harddisk1 -
In this case, you need to perform the following procedures to disable the Cluster Disk Driver:
1. In the Computer Management window, double-click System Tools, and then click Device
Manager.
2. On the View menu, click Show Hidden Devices. Non-Plug and Play Drivers appear in the
list in the right pane.
3. Open Non-Plug and Play Drivers, right-click Cluster Disk, and then click Disable. When
you are prompted to confirm whether you want to disable the cluster disk, click Yes.
When you are prompted to restart the computer, click Yes.
4. Verify that you can see the "Noread" volume using inqraid command as follows.
inqraid $Phy -CLI
DEVICE_FILE PORT
Harddisk0 CL2-K
Harddisk1 CL2-K
5. After starting up CCI and splitting the SVOL, put back the signature by using the "inqraid
-svinf" command.
6. Again In the Computer Management window, Enable the Cluster Disk Driver, and restart
the computer.
