Contributors netapp-thomi netapp-forry

You can use the storage disk option modify command to select a non-default policy for automatically assigning disk ownership or to disable automatic assignment of disk ownership.

Steps
  1. Modify automatic disk assignment:

    1. If you want to select a non-default policy, enter:

      storage disk option modify -autoassign-policy autoassign_policy -node node_name

      • Use stack as the autoassign_policy to configure automatic ownership at the stack or loop level.

      • Use shelf as the autoassign_policy to configure automatic ownership at the shelf level.

      • Use bay as the autoassign_policy to configure automatic ownership at the bay level.

    2. If you want to disable automatic disk ownership assignment, enter:

      storage disk option modify -autoassign off -node node_name

  2. Verify the automatic assignment settings for the disks:
