maximum of 30 characters.
physicalDisks
The physical disks that you want to use to create
the SSD cache. For high-capacity expansion
enclosures, specify the enclosure ID value, the
drawer ID value, and the slot ID value for each
physical disk that you want to assign to the SSD
cache. For low-capacity expansion enclosures,
specify the enclosure ID value and the slot ID value
for each physical disk that you assign to the SSD
cache. Enclosure ID values are 0 to 99. Drawer ID
values are 0 to 4. Slot ID values are 0 to 31.
Enclose the enclosure ID values, the drawer ID
values, and the slot ID values in parentheses.

updateExistingVirtualDisks
This optional parameter specifies whether the SSD
cache should be enabled for all existing virtual
disks in the storage array. To enable the SSD cache
for all existing virtual disks, set this parameter to
TRUE. If you want to enable the SSD cache for
individual virtual disks later, set this parameter to
FALSE. The default value is TRUE.

Notes
A storage array can have only one SSD cache.
Only virtual disks created using hard disk physical disks can use the SSD cache. You cannot enable SSD
cache on snapshot (legacy) virtual disks or snapshot images.

If all of the SSDs in the SSD cache are data assurance (DA)-capable and the DA premium feature is
enabled, DA is automatically enabled for the SSD cache and cannot be disabled. In addition, you cannot
add non-DA capable SSDs to a DA-enabled SSD cache.
