Compaq HSZ80 Array Controller ACS Version 8.3 Configuration and CLI Reference Guide
The SAVE_CONFIGURATION switch requires only one disk to be initialized with
this option. However, more disks may be used, if desired, for redundancy.
Specify SAVE_CONFIGURATION to store a copy of the controller configuration on
the container being initialized. A new controller can receive information from a
container containing configuration information saved with the
SAVE_CONFIGURATION switch. If you specify SAVE_CONFIGURATION for a
multi-device storageset, such as a stripeset, the complete controller configuration
information is stored on each disk drive in the storageset.
A disk drive initialized with the SAVE_CONFIGURATION switch specified has
slightly less storage space available for user data.
Specify NOSAVE_CONFIGURATION if you do not want to store a copy of the
controller configuration on a container.
See “Backing Up Your Subsystem Configuration,” page 3–25, for more information
regarding SAVE_CONFIGURATION.
