olh-caution.gif When you create the Dynamic Provisioning pool, if you specify Mixable for RAID level to display the Select Pool VOLs window, external volumes with the cache mode set to disabled are not displayed in the Available Pool Volumes table because they cannot coexist with volumes of the other RAID levels:

When you select these volumes in the Select Pool VOLs window, specify a hyphen (-) for RAID level.
