<chapter id="evmscreatesobj"><title>Creating Storage Objects</title>
<para>Storage objects are created from
segments, regions, disks, or other storage
objects. Storage objects are typically
used when an EVMS specific feature is desired
on a volume, such as Bad Block Relocation
(BBR). </para>
<sect1 id="EVMSCRSO"><title>Using CLI</title>
<para>Storage objects are created using the
<command>Create</command> command. In this
case, the arguments to the
<command>Create</command> command are the
keyword <command>Object</command> followed by the name of the EVMS feature to
use along with its options, and the segments,
disks, regions, and storage objects to use to
create the new storage object.</para>
<note><title>Example</title>
<para>Given the region <filename>lvm/Sample
Container/Sample Region</filename>, create a
storage object called BBR_Region using the
EVMS Bad Block Relocation
feature.</para></note>
<para>Because the BBR feature supports only
one option, <option>name</option>, the command
to complete this example is:</para>
<programlisting>Create:Object,BBR={name=BBR_Region},"lvm/Sample Container/Sample Region"</programlisting>
<note><title>NOTE</title>
<para>The EVMS CLI ignores spaces. Any name
containing spaces must appear in quotation
marks.</para></note>
