fully configured.
NOTE:
There is an option to create a hot spare for a RAID 1 virtual disk.
After the virtual disk is created, entering the Manage Hot Spares screen

NOTE:
RAID 1 provides protection against the failure of a single physical disk.
When a disk fails, the physical disk can be replaced and the data re-mirrored

6 Once the virtual disk has been created, a Background Initialization will
automatically be scheduled on the virtual disk.
NOTE:
Only one background task can be performed on the PERC H200 card at
any time. If there is already a resynchronization or Background Initialization in
progress on another virtual disk when a new virtual disk is created, the Background
Initialization for the new virtual disk will be scheduled and given a status of
BGI Pending. The pending Background Initialization will automatically start when
the existing background process completes.

Creating a RAID 10 Virtual Disk
A RAID 10 virtual disk offers the ability to stripe data across mirrored disks.
RAID 10 volumes offer high data throughput and complete data redundancy.
Follow these steps to create a RAID 10 virtual disk on a PERC H200 card that
does not currently have a virtual disk configured.
