A volume is a logical entity that is made up of portions of one or more physical disks. A volume can be formatted with a file system and can be accessed by a drive letter.
Like disks, volumes can be basic or dynamic. In Array Manager, basic volumes refer to all volumes that are not on dynamic disks. These include partitions and volumes managed by Array Manager as well as volumes created with Microsoft® Windows NT® Disk Administrator 4.0 or earlier. You cannot use the Array Manager and Disk Administrator applications at the same time. You can access volumes and partitions created by both applications simultaneously. However, if you are using a Windows NT 4.0 machine, you should continue to use Disk Administrator to change the volumes it created. See Manage Volumes Created with Windows NT Disk Administrator in this chapter for more information.
Dynamic volumes are logical volumes created from dynamic disks with Array Manager. For more information, see Working with Dynamic Volumes in this section.
The remainder of this chapter describes volume functions and has three main topics:
Just as basic and dynamic disks share some common disk procedures, basic and dynamic volumes also share common volume procedures. Those procedures are documented in this section. The section's topics include:
A drive path refers to the path to an NTFS volume that is mounted at an empty folder. Mounting a volume at an empty folder is a feature of the Windows® version requirements 2000 operating system. It is not available in Windows NT 4.0. On Windows 2000, the Volume context menu contains the command Change Drive Letter and Path; on Windows NT 4.0, the corresponding command is Change Drive Letter.
Note that you cannot reassign the drive letter of your active volume, the volume that contains your boot disk. You also cannot mount a volume on your boot disk.
CAUTION! Changing the drive letter or drive path on a partition or
volume may cause programs installed on that partition or
volume to no longer run.
Right-click on the designated volume and select Change Drive Letter.
The Change Drive Letter window displays.
To change or remove a drive letter, select Assign Drive Letter and click on the down arrow button to display the drive letters. Then select a drive letter and click OK.
To remove a drive letter, Select Do Not Assign Any Drive Letter and click OK.
Right-click on the designated volume and select Change Drive Letter and Path from the context menu that comes up.
The Drive Letter and Paths screen appears.
Click the Add, Remove, or Modify button, depending on what you want to do.
If a partition or volume does not have a drive letter, click Add. If you want to change an existing drive letter, click Modify. If you want to remove a drive letter or drive path, click Remove.
Follow these steps if you clicked the Add button:
The Add Drive Letter and Path screen appears.
Select a drive letter from the pull-down list and click OK.
If a drive letter is already assigned, you will not be able to add another drive letter. The option will be grayed out.
Or
Click the button for mounting the volume at an empty folder, then browse to select the empty folder, and click OK.
You can add multiple drive paths to a partition or volume.
If you clicked the Remove button, click Yes in the confirmation screen that appears.
Follow these steps if you clicked the Modify button:
The Modify Drive and Path screen appears.
Select a drive letter from the pull-down list and click OK.
If you try to assign a drive letter to a volume that is in use, a dialog box will ask you whether you want to forcibly reassign the drive letter. You can click Yes to do so.
Or
Click the button for mounting the volume at an empty folder, then browse to select the empty folder, and click OK.
If you want to modify an existing drive path, you will not be able to do so in this screen. You have to remove the drive path and recreate it. Click Cancel to return to the first screen and click Remove. Then you have to invoke the command again to recreate the drive path with the Add button.
You can add multiple drive paths to a partition or volume.
Array Manager allows you to mount a volume at any empty folder on a local NTFS volume. Array Manager assigns a drive path to the volume rather than a drive letter. Drive paths are useful because they eliminate the 24-drive-letter limit on hard-disk volume names. (Drive letters A and B are reserved for floppy drives.) The volume can be a partition, a logical drive that was created in Disk Administrator, or a dynamic volume.
The only restrictions are that the folder you mount the volume to must be empty and it must be on an NTFS volume on a local computer. You cannot mount volumes to network-accessible drives. You can, however, assign multiple drive paths to a single volume.
Mounted drive folders are distinguished from ordinary folders by having a drive icon instead of the normal folder icon.
You can assign the drive path when you create the volume with the Create Volume wizard at the Assign Drive Letter screen. You can also use the command Change Drive Letter and Path after the volume is created. A volume that already has a drive letter assigned can also have one or more drive paths. It does not have to be an unlabeled volume.
Create an empty folder on a drive with free space.
If you have not already created the volume, use the Create Volume wizard to create the volume. Do the following:
At the Assign Drive Letter screen, click Mount at an empty NTFS folder, type the path to the empty folder, or click Browse to locate it.
At the formatting screen, select NTFS as the file system type.
Complete the remaining steps for creating the volume.
If the volume was already created, use the command Change Drive Letter and Path. Its screen is similar to the Assign Drive Letter screen in the Create Volume wizard:
Highlight the volume you want to change to a mounted volume.
Right-click to bring up a context menu and select the command Change Drive Letter and Path.
Click the Add button.
Click Mount this volume at an empty folder, which supports drive paths, type the path to the empty folder, or browse to locate it.
If you have not already created the folder, you can click the New Folder button to have Array Manager create the folder for you.
Right-click the volume or partition you want to format and then click Format.
Choose either FAT, NTFS, or FAT32 as the file system to use.
Array Manager allows you to format using either FAT or NTFS. In addition, for Windows 2000 only, you can use FAT32.
FAT (File Allocation Table) A file system used by MS-DOS®, Windows 3.x, and Windows 95® or Windows 98®. Microsoft Windows NT and Windows 2000 also can use the FAT file system. The operating system maintains a table to keep track of the status of various segments of disk space used for file storage.
NTFS (NT File System) An advanced file system designed for use specifically within the Microsoft Windows NT and Windows 2000 operating systems. Use this format if you want to use file and folder compression. Note that NTFS cannot be used by MS-DOS, Windows 3.x, or Windows 95/98.
FAT32 (Windows 2000 only) A derivative of the file allocation table (FAT) file system. FAT32 supports smaller cluster sizes than FAT, thus providing more efficient space allocation on FAT32 drives. FAT32 is designed for larger disks than FAT.
Enter a label for the volume. This label appears on the Array Manager console. If a name has been selected, this name appears in the text box, but you can change it here.
Enter an allocation size, or use the default, which is automatically selected.
Select file system type and formatting options:
Quick format Formats the volume or partition without scanning for bad sectors in the volume or partition. Check this box to use this format method. Default is unchecked.
Enable file and folder compression - Can be used only if you choose NTFS format. Check this box to use this format method. Default is unchecked.
Select OK to begin formatting. A progress bar will display in the list view.
Note: You can cancel formatting at any time during the process by
selecting Cancel format from the menu. However, the Cancel option
does not attempt to restore any of the volume's content.
To refresh, click View and then Refresh. Progress bars display the percentage of progress while this command runs.
When you click the Refresh command, Array Manager updates displayed data with the current information. Refresh also checks to see whether unreadable volumes are now readable. However, it does not scan hardware. To update hardware information, use Rescan instead.
CAUTION! All data in the volume or partition will be lost when you
delete it. Make sure that the information has been backed
up onto another storage medium and verified, or that it is
no longer needed.
You can change the partition your system uses to start up by marking a selected primary partition as active.
The names commonly used for partitions containing the startup and operating system files are the system and boot partitions, respectively. The system partition refers to the partition containing the startup files. The boot partition contains the operating system files.
The system partition must be a primary partition that has been marked as active for startup purposes and must be located on the disk that the computer accesses when starting up the system. There can be only one active system partition at a time, which displays as Active in the status field. If you want to use another operating system, you must first mark its system partition as active before restarting the computer.
Note: You cannot change the drive letter of an active partition.
Select the primary partition that contains the startup files for the operating system that you want to activate.
Right-click to display the Partition menu and click Mark Partition Active.
A message appears, advising you that the partition will be marked Active and that the operating system on that partition will be started when you restart your computer. Click Yes to proceed.
The utility partition is a factory-installed, bootable partition on the hard-disk drive that provides utilities and diagnostics for your Dell PowerEdge system. When activated, the partition boots and provides an executable environment for the partition's utilities. When the utility partition is not booted, it is designated as a non-MS-DOS partition.
This partition is placed on your hard-disk drive at the factory; it is recommended that you leave it as is.
Array Manager does not allow you to change Disk Administrator volumes, but it lets you view and do limited management of them. If you are running on Windows NT 4.0, you will need to exit Array Manager and then bring up Disk Administrator to make changes to these legacy Disk Administrator volumes.
CAUTION! Disk Administrator should never be used while Array
Manager is running, especially if there are tasks running on
the controller at the time. Data loss can occur if both
applications are running simultaneously.
If you are using Windows 2000, you obviously will not be able to use Disk Administrator to change these volumes, but you can upgrade these volumes to dynamic volumes. See the next topic, Upgrade Disks with Legacy Volumes to Dynamic, for details.
Array Manager recognizes volumes created with Windows NT Disk Administrator, but provides only a limited set of functions to use to administer these "legacy" volumes.
Array Manager uses different names to refer to the Disk Administrator volumes. The following table shows the respective names and the functions that Array Manager can perform on these volumes
Naming Conventions for Array Manager and Disk Administrator
Array Manager Name
Windows NT Disk Administrator Name
Array Manager Functions Allowed on Disk Administrator Volumes
Upgrading a disk to dynamic that contains basic partitions and/or the mirrored, striped, spanned, or RAID-5 volumes configured with Disk Administrator cannot be done directly under Windows NT 4.0, but this upgrade can be done under Windows 2000.
Under Windows NT 4.0, if you want convert basic partitions to simple dynamic volumes or to convert Disk Administrator RAID volumes to dynamic volumes of the same type, you will have to back up your data, use Disk Administrator to delete the partitions or volumes, and exit Disk Administrator. Then you can start Array Manager, upgrade the disk or disks that contain the partitions or volumes to dynamic, and create new dynamic volumes of the types desired in Array Manager. Then you would need to copy back your data to the new dynamic volumes.
Under Windows 2000, you can upgrade partitions and NT 4.0 Disk Administrator RAID volumes to dynamic volumes by upgrading the disk(s) they are on to dynamic. This feature is called encapsulation.
With Windows 2000, you can upgrade basic disks containing these volumes to dynamic disks, and Array Manager will convert the partitions into volumes of the appropriate type, preserving all data contained in them. This upgrade can be done on any basic disk, including those containing the system and/or boot partitions.
If you are upgrading a Disk Administrator basic volume that resides on multiple disks, you must upgrade all the basic disks that contain the multi-disk volume. You must upgrade all of these disks together. Each of the disks must have at least 1MB of unallocated space at the end of the disk or the upgrade will fail. This space is needed for the database information that Array Manager uses to administer the volumes.
When you upgrade disks that contain partitions and NT Disk Administrator basic volumes, any existing partitions on the basic disks become simple volumes on the dynamic disks, and the other volumes become dynamic volumes of the corresponding type:
A basic spanned volume (volume set) becomes a simple or spanned dynamic volume.
A basic mirrored volume (mirror set) becomes a mirrored volume.
A basic striped volume (stripe set) becomes a striped dynamic volume.
A basic RAID-5 volume (stripe set with parity) becomes a dynamic RAID-5 volume.
Dynamic volumes are volumes created on dynamic disks with Array Manager. On a dynamic disk, storage is divided into volumes instead of partitions. A dynamic volume consists of a portion or portions of one or more physical disks of any possible dynamic volume type. The five dynamic volume types are: simple, spanned, mirrored, striped, and RAID-5.
Note: You cannot create a dynamic mirrored or RAID-5 volume if you
are using a Windows NT Workstation or a Windows 2000 Professional
machine. Also, dynamic volumes cannot be created on Microsoft
Cluster Server (MSCS) shared resources (that is, cluster-enabled array
disks that are attached to a PERC 3/DC controller).
You can create any number of dynamic volumes in the unallocated space on a disk or create volumes that span two or more disks. Each volume on a disk can have a different file system, such as the file allocation table (FAT or FAT32) file system or the Microsoft Windows NT file system (NTFS).
Remember that any changes you make to your disk are immediately available. You do not need to quit Array Manager to save them or reboot your computer to implement them.
A dynamic simple volume consists of a single contiguous region on a disk. Dynamic simple volumes can be extended or mirrored. You can extend a simple volume within the same disk or onto additional disks. If you extend a simple volume across noncontiguous areas on the same disk or across multiple disks, it becomes a spanned volume. Dynamic simple volumes by themselves are not fault tolerant, but you can add data redundancy to a simple volume by mirroring it to another disk.
A dynamic spanned volume consists of two or more subdisks (contiguous disk regions) on one or more disks. With a spanned volume, you can combine sections of unallocated space from multiple dynamic disks into one large volume. The areas of unallocated space used to create spanned volumes can be different sizes. Spanned volumes are organized sequentiallythat is, Array Manager sequentially allocates space on each disk until that disk is full and then continues with the next disk until the volume size is reached.
Spanned volumes can be extended. After a volume is extended, no portion of it can be deleted without deleting the entire spanned volume. Spanned volumes by themselves are not fault tolerant, but you can add data redundancy to a spanned volume by mirroring it to another disk.
When you create a dynamic volume, simple and spanned dynamic volumes are combined together in an option called concatenated.
Note: Note: Dell does not recommend spanning volumes across
multiple disk controllers.
Striped volumes are created by combining areas of free space on two or more disks into one logical volume. Data is divided into blocks and spread in a fixed order among all the disks in the volume. With a striped volume, data is written to multiple disks, similar to spanned volumes. However, striping writes files across all disks so that data is added to all disks at the same rate.
Striped volumes offer the best performance of all the disk management strategies. However, striped volumes do not provide fault tolerance. If a disk in a striped volume fails, the data in the entire volume is lost. You cannot mirror or extend a striped volume.
A mirrored volume is a volume that duplicates your data on two physical disks. A mirror provides redundancy by simultaneously writing the same data onto two separate volumes that reside on different disks. If one of the disks fails, data continues to be written to and read from the unaffected disk. You can mirror only a simple or spanned dynamic volume. Those two volume types combined together are known as concatenated.
A RAID-5 volume is a fault-tolerant volume with data and parity striped alternately across three or more physical disks. If one of the physical disks fails, data that was on the failed disk is recreated from the remaining data and parity on the other disks. RAID-5 volumes are a good solution for data redundancy in a computer environment in which most activity consists of reading data.
You need a minimum of three disks for a RAID-5 volume. Array Manager can accommodate up to 32 disks in a RAID-5 volume.
This section on creating a dynamic volume has some useful background information, as well as the detailed steps for successfully carrying out the procedure.
Refer to the previous section, Dynamic Volume Types, for a detailed description of the five dynamic volume typessimple, spanned, striped, mirrored, and RAID-5.
It is important to understand that the total volume size you indicate for the volume in the Create Volume wizard is the usable size for storing the data. Depending on the layout type, the volume can take more space on the disk. The size shown in the wizard for simple, striped, and spanned volumes is the actual volume size on the disk. A RAID-5 volume requires additional space for parity information, and a mirrored volume is a multiple of the space taken by the original plex of the volume.
From the toolbar, click the Create Volume icon. The Create Volume wizard appears. You can read information about partitions and volumes and then click Next to continue.
You are asked to select the volume layout and size of volume to create.
Select one of the following dynamic volume types:
Selection
Description
Concatenated
Default Simple or spanned volume.
Striped
You must have unallocated space on two dynamic disks to create a striped volume. The number of columns is automatically selected as 2.
RAID-5
You must have at least three dynamic disks with sufficient unallocated space to create a RAID-5 volume. Note that you cannot create a RAID-5 volume if you are using a Windows NT Workstation or a Windows 2000 Professional machine.
Mirror
You must have two dynamic disks with sufficient unallocated space to create a mirror. You can mirror only a simple or spanned volume. Any other selection will cause the mirror option on the menu to be grayed out. You cannot mirror a volume if you are using a Windows NT Workstation or a Windows 2000 Professional machine.
Provide a size in MB or GB and click Next to continue.
If you are creating the volume on a Windows 2000 system, you will see a Query Max Size button. This button is not available on NT 4.0 systems. The Query Max Size button works differently, depending on whether you had a disk selected when you chose the Create Volume command.
If no disk was selected, clicking the Query Max Size button will display the maximum for all available disks in the Total volume size entry box.
If a disk was selected, clicking the Query Max Size button will display the maximum size for the selected disk(s). However, if you click the button a second time, the size will be the maximum for all available disks.
After all selections are made, verify your settings and click Next to continue.
You can choose a different disk for the volume you are creating. Click Modify to display the Modify Disks dialog box. Click on the disk you want to change, and then click on the arrow to select a disk from the drop-down list box.
Choose a drive letter. Click Next to continue. Your next step will be to format the volume.
If you do not want to assign a drive letter, select do not assign drive letter. Click Next to continue, then Finish. The volume appears as an icon with no name in the Array Manager console. You can assign a drive letter later, if you like.
If you are using a Windows 2000 machine, you can also mount the volume at an empty NTFS folder. See the section Mount an NTFS Volume at an Empty Folder for more information.
The capability of extending a simple or spanned volume, which is also known as Online Volume Expansion (OLVE), lets you increase the size of existing simple or spanned volumes. This is independent of the type of storage used, but is most beneficial when the virtual disks are first increased in size.
Note: Dell recommends using only hardware redundant (such as
RAID-1 and RAID-5) virtual disks for spanned volumes.
there is unallocated space on a dynamic disk onto which volume can be extended.
You cannot extend a volume if any of the following are true:
The volume is formatted as FAT or FAT32.
The volume is a striped, mirrored, or a RAID-5 volume.
There is no unallocated space available on a dynamic disk.
You can extend simple and spanned volumes on dynamic disks onto a maximum of 32 dynamic disks. Once a volume is extended, it cannot be mirrored or striped. No portion of a spanned volume can be deleted without deleting the entire spanned volume.
Right-click the simple or spanned volume you want to extend and then click Extend Volume. The selected volume appears in the dialog box along with its current size.
Note: The Extend Volume option is disabled if the volume cannot be
extended.
Enter the amount to extend the volume and click OK.
Ignore any system messages that you may see while the volume extends. You do not have to run any special utilities. Examples of these messages are as follows:
System Process - Corrupt File
(X) The file or directory is corrupted and unreadable.
Please run the Chkdsk utility.
Click OK to finish. The volume will now show the extended size.
When using OLVE with SAN storage, the following need to be considered:
Dynamic disks cannot be moved between servers in a SAN, so any dynamic volumes will be dedicated to a single server.
Dell strongly recommends having only a single spanned dynamic volume per server connect to a SAN.
If you need large volumes, it is better to create larger virtual disks than to create dynamic volumes that span across multiple virtual disks. It is best to have a dynamic volume span across a minimum of virtual disks.
Remember that online expansion is for dynamic volumes onlybasic volumes cannot be extended. On Windows NT servers, you cannot convert basic volumes directly to dynamic volumes. On Windows 2000 servers, basic volumes can be converted to dynamic volumes. See the section Upgrade Disks with Legacy Volumes to Dynamic in this chapter.
Extending dynamic volumes does not maintain any redundancy data on the dynamic disks. If any dynamic disk of a spanned dynamic volume fails, the entire dynamic volume fails, making its data unavailable and possibly corrupt. A spanned dynamic volume is only as reliable as its least-reliable dynamic disk. Therefore, use dynamic disks that are protected by hardware redundant RAID.
Do not span a dynamic volume across SAN and non-SAN storage or across multiple storage systems in a SAN.
Do not span more than one dynamic volume to a single dynamic disk. When spanning a dynamic volume, use the entire space of the dynamic disk. In other words, a dynamic disk should contain only a portion of one spanned dynamic volume.
To ease the procedure of spanning dynamic volumes in a SAN, create dynamic disks only as you need them. This will make it easy to choose which dynamic disk to use in the new spanned dynamic volume.
Once a dynamic volume is extended, the expansion cannot be undone. Therefore, once a volume is spanned across two disks, it will always be a two-disk volume.
A dynamic simple or spanned volume can be increased in size but not decreased.
The Dell PowerVault 530F system's snapshot feature is not supported on dynamic volumes.
Dell PowerEdge FE100 Clusters do not support dynamic volumes.
Dell recommends the following procedure for extending a simple or spanned dynamic volume across a new virtual disk in a SAN:
Create a new virtual disk (or LUN) on your disk storage system. For the PowerVault 660F, this can be done with Array Manager.
Assign the new virtual disk to the SAN server, using the Dell OpenManage Storage Consolidation software. For Windows NT servers, this may require a reboot to recognize the new virtual disk.
Note: Never reassign a SAN LUN that is part of a spanned dynamic
volume to another server or Free List. Data loss will occur. Also, Dell
strongly recommends using redundant RAID levels such as RAID-1 or
RAID-5 for a virtual disk that will be used as part of a dynamic
volume.
Find the new disk under the Disks folder using Array Manager and upgrade it to dynamic.
Continue with the step-by-step instructions in the main section for Extending a Dynamic Simple or Spanned Volume to complete the process of extending the volume. When specifying the amount to extend the volume, be sure to use all the space on the new dynamic disk.
The Add Mirror option is disabled if the volume cannot be mirrored or if there is no unallocated space on another dynamic disk large enough to mirror the volume.
You can remove or break a mirror. You should understand the differences between these two procedures.
Removing a mirror from a volume "removes" or destroys the data from the selected mirror and leaves the other mirror intact. After you remove a mirror, the space on the disk used by the removed mirrored volume becomes unallocated space. The remaining (no longer mirrored) volume becomes a simple volume on the disk.
Breaking a mirror creates two simple volumes with individual drive letters. Each volume contains the data on the mirror at the time the mirror was broken. The data is no longer redundant, but it remains intact.
Right-click the volume from which you want to remove a mirror and click Remove Mirror. You can then follow the instructions on your screen.
CAUTION! Once you remove a mirror from a mirrored volume, the
removed part of the mirror becomes unallocated space and
the volume is no longer fault tolerant. All of the data on the
removed mirror is deleted.
If there is a problem with one of the disks on which a mirrored volume resides, make sure that the disk is properly connected, and then try to bring that disk back online by first using Rescan. If Rescan does not work, then use the Reactivate Disk command. In most cases, Reactivate Disk will bring the disk online and all of the volumes will be healthy.
However, if any of the mirrors or plexes of the mirrored volume are still not healthy, you may need to resynchronize the unhealthy volume with the Reactivate Volume command. Resynchronizing makes the data consistent on the plexes of a mirrored volume.
Right-click on the volume to bring up the context menu, and then click Reactivate Volume.
The mirrored volume should be brought back to a healthy state unless there is a serious problem with the volume or one of its disks has actually failed. In that case, see the next section, Repairing a Mirrored Volume.
When a disk on which a mirrored volume resides fails, the volume displays a Failed Redundancy status. The disk's name is changed to Missing, and an icon (X) appears on the Missing icon. The status of the disk will be Offline.
To repair a dynamic mirrored volume, you must first use Remove Mirror to remove the part of the volume that is on the missing disk and then use Add Mirror to add a new mirror, using space from another available dynamic disk.
The difference between reactivating a mirrored volume and repairing it is that reactivating is resynchronizing the volume to bring it to a normal state in its existing location, while repairing involves removing the damaged section of the volume and recreating it in another location on a healthy dynamic disk.
If there is a problem with one of the disks on which a RAID-5 volume resides, make sure that the disk is properly connected, and then try to bring that disk back online by first using Rescan. If Rescan does not work, then use the Reactivate Disk command. In most cases, Reactivate Disk will bring the disk online and all of the volumes will be healthy.
However, if the volume is still not healthy, try to resynchronize the unhealthy volume with the Reactivate Volume command. Right-click on the volume to bring up the context menu, and then click Reactivate Volume.
The RAID-5 volume should be brought back to a healthy state unless there is a serious problem with the volume or one of its disks has actually failed. In that case, see the next section, Repairing a RAID-5 Volume.
You can repair a RAID-5 volume if it is in a state of Failed Redundancy, and if there is unallocated space on another dynamic disk available. To avoid data loss, you should attempt to repair the volume as soon as possible.
Right-click on the volume, then on Repair RAID-5 Volume.
A message appears that indicates that the repair will be attempted if there is another dynamic disk with adequate unallocated space. Click Yes to confirm the repair.
The volume should be brought back to a healthy state.
