You can specify disk classes to an allocation request with vxassist to indicate the type of storage to allocate.

For more information about the disk classes, see the Storage Specifications section of the vxassist(1M) manual page.

You can customize the disk classes in the following ways:

You can also create customized, user-defined disk classes.
