Use this tab to allocate devices to the WPAR that are available
on the global system. This page is only shown if there are devices
allocated to the original WPAR that contain rootvg information. Devices
selected are allocated to the WPAR you are creating and are automatically

restarted, unless it is exported to any other WPARs in the system
