Could not create volume using mixed disk configuration

I'm using the RST CLI (version 13.2) trying to create a RAID 0 from 3 SSD's. I am able to successfully create the RAID using the RST Windows utility but not RST CLI (rstcli64.exe). The command line I am using and the received error is shown below. I've also included the info that gets returned when I use the -I parameter. Any help would be appreciated.

My Command Line: rstcli64 -C -l 0 -s 64 -n RAID 0-0-0-0 0-0-1-0 0-0-4-0

Error Received:

INVALID_REQUEST: Unrecognized command, request was formatted incorrectly.

Could not create volume using mixed disk configuration.

Also, when I do an info I get the following:

Hello dburke

 

 

Thank you for joining the community.

 

 

I see that you are using Intel® rapid storage technology (IRST) to create a RAID0 on your system; when you are using the graphical interface you are able to create the RAID, but at the time to use the CLI you are having an error to create the RAID, is there any particular reason to create use the CLI to create the RAID?

Yes! We want to use the CLI because we want to automate the process of creating the RAID in our systems in production. Doing it manually is far too cumbersome for production environments. I realize we could always use a macro recording and playback program which is our fallback plan if the CLI can't be used.

Hello dburke

 

 

Thank you for your response

 

 

At this stage, I would recommend waiting for different community peers to join in and provide additional Command lines for the CLI version 13.2; allow me to inform you that Intel does not provide command lines assistance because this will be driver installation modification.
