This chapter explains how to prepare and configure RAID volumes that are ultimately mapped to

the various IP services advertised on the ATCA-S201 ATCA carrier board. These virtual RAID
volumes are created from in-chassis storage pools comprised of AMC modules with SAS or SATA
disks. Hardware RAID services are available for disk striping (RAID0) and extended volume
mirroring (RAID1, RAID1E). Software RAID services are available for parity based disk striping
algorithms including RAID4, RAID5 and RAID6. The Software RAID features of this product can
provide better capacity utilization efficiency, but can consume a greater percentage of CPU and
disks. Hardware RAID services are available for disk striping (RAID0) and extended volume
