Before you create aggregates manually, you should review disk configuration options and simulate creation. Then you can issue the storage aggregate create and verify the results.
About this task
If root-data-data partitioning is enabled and you have 24 solid state drives (SSDs) or fewer in your configuration, it is recommended that your data partitions be assigned to different nodes.
The procedure for creating aggregates on systems with
root-data partitioning and root-data-data partitioning enabled is the same as the procedure for creating aggregates on systems using unpartitioned disks. If
root-data partitioning is enabled on your system, you should use the number of disk partitions for the
-diskcount option. For root-data-data partitioning, the
-diskcount option specifies the count of disks to use.
Note: When creating multiple aggregates for use with FlexGroups, aggregates should be as close in size as possible.
The storage aggregate create man page contains more information about aggregate creation options and requirements.
