284 Configuring vFlash SD Card and Managing vFlash Partitions
Creating a Partition
• To create a 20MB empty partition:
racadm vflashpartition create -i 1 -o drive1 -t
empty -e HDD -f fat16 -s 20
• To create a partition using an image file on a remote system:
racadm vflashpartition create –i 1 –o drive1 –e
HDD –t image –l //myserver/sharedfolder/foo.iso –u
root –p mypassword
NOTE: This command is case sensitive for the image file name extension. If
the file name extension is in upper case, for example FOO.ISO instead of
FOO.iso, then the command returns a syntax error.
NOTE: Creating a partition using an image file is not supported in local RACADM.
Deleting a Partition
• To delete a partition:
racadm vflashpartition delete -i 1
• To delete all partitions, re-initialize the vFlash SD card. For information,
see "Initializing the vFlash or Standard SD Card" on page 271.
Getting the Status of a Partition
• To get the status of operation on partition 1:
racadm vflashpartition status -i 1
• To get the status of all existing partitions:
racadm vflashpartition status -a
