To successfully create a virtual disk, a minimum of two spans must exist at all times.

Click Continue to return to Create Virtual Disk Advanced Wizard (Step 4 of 4).

Virtual Disk Task: Reconfigure (Step 1 of 3)



Does my controller support this feature? See Supported Features.

The Reconfigure task enables you to change the virtual disk configuration. Using this task, you can change the RAID level and increase the virtual disk size by

adding physical disks. On some controllers, you can also remove physical disks.

Before continuing with the virtual disk reconfiguration, you should be familiar with the information in Starting and Target RAID Levels for Virtual Disk

Reconfiguration and Capacity Expansion and Choosing RAID Levels and Concatenation.



To Reconfigure a Virtual Disk: Step 1 of 3



1. Select the physical disks that you want to include in the virtual disk. You can expand the virtual disk's capacity by adding additional physical disks. On

some controllers, you can also remove physical disks.

The changes you make to the physical disk selection are displayed in the Selected Physical Disks table.



2. Click Continue to go to the next screen or Exit Wizard if you want to cancel.



To locate this task in Storage Management:



1. Expand the Storage tree object to display the controller objects.



2. Expand a controller object.



3. Select the Virtual Disks object.



4. Select Reconfigure from the Available Tasks drop-down menu.



5. Click Execute.

Virtual Disk Task: Reconfigure (Step 2 of 3)



Does my controller support this feature? See Supported Features.

This screen enables you to select the RAID level and size for the reconfigured virtual disk.

If you clicked Expand Capacity in the previous step, this screen allows you to expand the capacity of the virtual disk. The Expand Capacity option appears

only for PERC H700 and PERC H800 controllers with firmware 7.1 or above.

NOTE: If you click Span Edit, Intelligent Mirroring that is already been applied becomes invalid.

NOTE: You cannot reconfigure a virtual disk on a controller that is operating in cluster mode.

NOTE: On the PERC 5/E and PERC 6/E controllers, you can create no more than 64 virtual disks. After you have reached this limit, you can no longer

reconfigure any of the virtual disks on the controller.

NOTE: On Linux, if you do a reconfigure on the same controller on which the operating system resides, you may experience extremely slow system

performance until the reconfigure is complete.

NOTE: You may want to review Virtual Disk Considerations for PERC 4/SC, 4/DC, 4e/DC, 4/Di, 4e/Si, 4e/Di, PERC 5/E, PERC 5/i, PERC 6/E, and PERC 6/I

Controllers. This section contains considerations that also apply to reconfiguring a virtual disk on these controllers.

NOTE: For a controller that has more than one channel, it may be possible to configure a virtual disk that is channel-redundant. For more information,

see Channel Redundancy and Thermal Shutdown.

NOTE: For PERC H700 and PERC H800 controllers, if any of the drives you selected is in the spun down state, the following message is displayed: The

below listed physical drive(s) are in the spun down state. Executing this task on these drive(s) takes additional time, because the drive(s) need to spun

up. The message displays the ID(s) of the spun down drive(s).

NOTE: For PERC H700 and PERC H800 controllers, if the disk group has free space available, you can expand the virtual disk capacity. To expand virtual

disk capacity, click Expand Capacity.
