3-63container Commandscontainer promoteTo create a multilevel volume set from a stripe set or volume set,use the container promote command. In this case, theresulting array is an array of single-partition volume sets, each ofwhich has a single partition from the original array.Typically, you use the container promote command as part ofa process to provide fault tolerance for existing volume sets. Aftercontainer promote is executed, use container createmmirror (which provides the fault tolerance) to make this array anarray of mirror sets.NotesThe container promote command differs from thecontainer add_level command as follows: The container create volume command creates asingle-level array. If you use the container add_level command andspecify the ID for a single-level volume set, the result is avolume set with two partitions. If you use the container promote command and specifythe ID for a single-level volume set, the result is a multilevelvolume set (a volume set with two volumes under it).Syntaxcontainer promote {container}Parameters{container}Specifies the ID number (0 to 63) of the array to promote to amultilevel array.ExamplesBefore promoting an array to a multilevel array, use thecontainer list command to obtain information about anyexisting arrays.
