  1. Specify the parity group (13-4) for which no volume has been created to create a pool for Dynamic Provisioning whose pool ID is 0 and whose pool name is HA_POOL. 
    raidcom add dp_pool -pool_id 0 -pool_name HA_POOL -parity_grp_id 13-4 -IH1
  2. Confirm that asynchronous command processing has completed. 
    raidcom get command_status -IH1
