mrconfig sp make

CAUTION
The mrconfig command must be run under the supervision of HPE support.

The mrconfig sp make command creates a storage pool on a concat disk group.

WARNING
Creating a Storage Pool Causes Data Loss

Creating a storage pool on a disk group destroys the data on the disks in the disk group, so be sure that all data on the disks in the disk group is backed up and replicated before creating a storage pool.

See mrconfig for instructions on running mrconfig commands.
