Move the DCO volume subdisk

You might want to move a DCO volume and the associated mirrored subdisk to another disk if something happens to the original disk, or you may prefer to have this subdisk on another disk to split the disk group differently. The DCO volume and the associated mirrored subdisk have to be moved to a disk in the same disk group.

To move a DCO volume subdisk

  1. Under the Volumes folder, select the volume whose DCO volume subdisk you want to move.
  2. Right-click in the empty space on the Disk View tab in the right-hand pane.

    A context menu is displayed.

  3. Select Vol Details.

    The display changes. The Disk View tab now displays the subdisk names for the volumes.

  4. Right-click on the subdisk containing the DCO volume.

    A context menu is displayed.

  5. Select Move Subdisk.

    The Subdisk Move window appears.

  6. Click Manually assign destination disks.
  7. Highlight the disk you want to move the mirrored volume subdisk with the DCO volume to, and click Add. The selected disk is moved to the right pane of the window.
  8. Click OK to complete the command.

    The mirrored volume subdisk with the DCO volume is moved to the other disk.
