Available disks function lists the disks which are connected with one path only and that are not configured as a part of MPIO devices.
This function enables a manual configuration of those disks (with one path) as part MPIO devices. It is also possible to check details of individual disks.

Important:
Disks on which Pools are located are also listed – in this case, the configuration of an MPIO appliance will be postponed as pending setup until the Pool is exported,
and later until:

  • the Pool is imported
  • or the system restarted
  • or when using a cross SAS cluster for moving the resources (Pool) to the second node and back.

Important:
In case of using remote disks for cluster over Ethernet functionality, the MPIO devices configuration will be postponed until the system is restarted.

Important:
Listed are also the disks which are available through more than one path and which were deleted from the MPIO devices in the MPIO disks section form - keep in mind
that the MPIO device will be automatically configured after the system restart, as it is for all disks connected to the system through more than one path.
