Description
physicalDiskCount
Number of unassigned physical disks to use in the disk group.
NOTE: The physicalDiskCount parameter enables you
to choose the number of physical disks to use in the disk
group. You do not need to specify the physical disks by
enclosure ID and slot ID. The RAID controller modules
choose the specific physical disks to use for the disk group.
