5-36Adaptec SCSI RAID Software Reference Guide{scsi_device},{free_space}...Specifies any additional SCSI devices and associatedfreespaces used to create the volume set. A volume set canhave a maximum of 16 partitions (or freespaces, since eachfreespace becomes a partition).Note that you must explicitly specify the entire ID for anyadditional SCSI devices (the SCSI channel number, device ID,and device logical unit number).Switches/cache{=boolean}Specifies whether to enable the array’s raw array cache. Youcan use this switch only if a native operating system’s filesystem (for Windows NT/Windows 2000 (basic disk only)/Windows XP (basic disk only), the NTFS or FAT file system)resides on the array. If you do not want to enable the volumeset’s raw array cache when you create it, you can do so later byusing the container set cache command. In fact, thecontainer set cache command gives you more control insetting the NVRAM write-back cache.If you set this switch to TRUE, the command causes thecontroller to■ Enable the read-ahead cache setting for the specified array.You should always enable the read-ahead cache to optimizeperformance, unless your application–which is unlikely–isdoing completely random reads.■ Enable when protected the NVRAM write-back cachesetting for the specified array. This means the controllerenables the array’s NVRAM write-back cache only if abattery is present and its status is OK.This switch defaults to FALSE, which means the commandcauses the controller to disable the array’s raw array cache. Ifyou accept the default, the command■ Disables the read-ahead cache■ Disables the NVRAM write-back cache
