This wizard guides you through the process of creating disk sets. No changes to your system or storage configuration will take place until the end of the process, at which point you will have an opportunity to review and approve the actions to be taken.

This process includes:

  1. Optionally creating extra state database replicas. Note that creating a disk set will automatically add a state database replica to each disk in the set, regardless of your selection here.

  2. Naming the disk set

  3. Selecting the disks to include in the disk set

  4. Confirming the commands to be executed, then completing the process.

In this step, choose either:

The state database stores information on disk about the state of your Enhanced Storage configuration. Enhanced Storage automatically updates the state database when an administrator changes the configuration or if a state change, such as a physical device failure, occurs. The state database is replicated across multiple copies to ensure that the data is always valid and protected against data loss. Enhanced Storage requires that the state database and state database replicas exist.
