2012 won't create RAID 6 or more than 8 columns in Storage Spaces


hi --

i'm working in windows server 2012 standard edition rtm, , can't seem new-virtualdisk cmdlet let me interesting.

-i created storage pool 12 40 gb disks (virtual, clearly).

-i can create virtual disks either gui or new-virtualdisk, command:

new-virtualdisk -friendlyname firstvdisk -storagepoolfriendlyname nonprimordial -size 70gb -r parity

-running new-virtualdisk firstvdisk | select * |out-gridview , however, shows i've got 8 columns , physicaldiskredundancy of 1.

thinking i've got disks (oops, mean columns) burn, tried force more columns deleting virtual disk , re-creating it, adding "-numberofcolumns 9" got error it's out of range.  on 8 yields error.

similarly, trying re-create virtual disk -physicaldiskredundancy 2 gets "the value physicaldiskredundancy outside of supported range of values."

any clue how configure storage pool let me set physicaldiskredundancy 2, or use more 8 columns? thanks.

is there official document telling storage spaces support double parity?

i had impression can stripe (raid0), mirror (raid1) , stripe parity (raid5) only...
