Requested level: single hids 2 drives
The disk group is configured with drive failure protection level "single" and occupancy alarm at 90%.
This combination of factors seem strange to me. When I change the requested level to "none" I immediately get back almost 2 Tb (2 disks) worth of space.
So what gives here? If I configure raid 5 AND I have an occupancy alarm level of 10%, why does command view ALSO hide 2 drives from me?
Also, what is wrong with making the requested level none if I am careful to observe occupancy levels?
thanks

Re: Requested level: single hids 2 drives
single disk protection means 2 virtual spares, it is not a good idea not having them (none) because then immediately after the disk failure the whole disk group becomes into the degraded state. If you have 2 virtual spares, the controller firmware automaticaly ungroup the failed disk from the disk group and the disk group is again ready to survive the one disk failure....
