A. If you have upgraded to dynamic disks to take advantage of their increased functionality (e.g., RAID), the system has assigned a name to your dynamic disk group, which is usually the machine name with a suffix of Dg0. To check the name, perform the following steps:
Start regedit.exe.
Go to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINESYSTEMCurrentControlSetServicesdmioBoot InfoPrimary Disk Group.
The Name value is the dynamic disk group name.
Close regedit.
Microsoft advises against changing this name.
