Designating default devices  Increasing the size of devices with disk resize

Chapter 7: Initializing Database Devices

NoteIf you are using disk mirroring or segments, exercise caution in deciding which devices you add to the default list with sp_diskdefault. In most cases, devices that are to be mirrored or databases that contain objects placed on segments should allocate devices specifically, rather than being made part of default storage.
