■ Creating a Disk Array

Only a RAID1 disk array can be created with the onboard SCSI array controller.

 Use two internal hard disk units of the same type and with the same capacity to create a RAID1 disk 

array. Do not use internal hard disk units different in type from each other.

 Be sure to install RAID Management Tool to configure a disk array. For details, refer to "Onboard SCSI 

RAID User's Guide".

 When configuring a disk array using an internal hard disk units that have been used in another system 

and may contain partition information or other data, connect the hard disk units to another system and 

perform low-level formatting before physically connecting them to this server. For details, refer to the 

manual supplied with the system to be used.

 Upon creation of a disk array, exit the SCSI Setup Utility and start OS installation immediately. As soon 

as a disk array is created, array initialization will start. However, if the SCSI Setup Utility is still running, 

the initialization will take long time (even for several days).

 

The onboard SCSI array controller in this server supports background initialization (BGI). Start OS 

installation without waiting for the initialization to complete. For array initialization, refer to "Onboard 

SCSI RAID User's Guide".
