Assigning disks to nodes

You can use Storage Manager to assign the ownership of unassigned disks to nodes to increase the size of the aggregates.



Assign disks to nodes:
  1. Refer to Assigning disks to nodes.
  2. Refer to Zeroing spare disks.
  • Assigning disks to nodes
    You can use Storage Manager to assign ownership of an unassigned disk to a specific node to increase the capacity of an aggregate or storage pool.
  • Zeroing spare disks
    You can use Storage Manager to erase all the data and to format the spare disks by writing zeros to the disk. These disks can then be used in new aggregates.
