LU creation and deletion on the HP MA and EMA

Ensure that you are familiar with the HSG80 controller container types for logical unit (LU) configuration.

HSG80 controller container types for LU configuration lists the valid container types.

Table 1. HSG80 controller container types for LU configuration
Container Number of Members Maximum Size
JBOD - non transportable
Attention: A JBOD provides no redundancy at the physical disk-drive level. A single disk failure can result in the loss of an entire storage pool and its associated volumes.
1 Disk size minus metadata
Mirrorset 2 - 6 Smallest member
RAIDset 3 - 14 1.024 terabytes
Stripeset 2 - 24 1.024 terabytes
Striped Mirrorset 2 - 48 1.024 terabytes
Note: LUs can be created and deleted on an HSG80 controller while I/O operations are completed to other LUs. You do not need to restart the HP MA or EMA system.
