Use the Integrated Virtualization Manager to
create a virtual disk on your managed system. Virtual disks are also known
as logical volumes.
To create a virtual disk, do the following:
- From the Virtual Storage Management menu,
click View/Modify Virtual Storage.
- Click *Create Virtual Disk.... The Create Virtual Disk panel is displayed.
- Enter a virtual disk name, select a storage pool, and
enter a size for the virtual disk, and then click OK. The virtual disk is created, and then the View/Modify Virtual
Storage panel is displayed.
- Repeat this procedure for each virtual disk that you want to create.
- To view or modify the properties of any virtual disks
that you just created, see Modifying virtual disks.
These steps are equivalent to using the mkbdsp command
in the command-line interface.
If there is not enough disk
space for the virtual disk, increase the size of the default storage pool.
For instructions, see Modifying storage pools using the Integrated Virtualization Manager
