Pagina afdrukkenIf using a M5210 RAID controller, prior to drives being addressable as installation targets, you
must first create a RAID array. RAID arrays can be created by using the F1 System
Settings Storage selection:
1. Select the RAID controller that you want to configure arrays for, as shown in Figure 22.
This opens the main menu for that controller, as shown in Figure 23. If there are no virtual
drives created when you select that component, the main menu is empty.

2. To create a RAID array, select Configuration Management, as shown in Figure 24 on
page 24. You can pick from the following options:
– The Create Virtual Drive option does basic RAID configuration for Generic RAID 0, 1,
5, and 6 (if applicable). This basic configuration gives you little control in how arrays are
laid out.
– The Make JBOD option is supported in those scenarios where you have a M5210
adapter, but do not have the cache module installed. This option sets the controller in
pass-through mode, which allows the drives to become directly addressable to the OS.
JBOD mode and virtual drive (RAID) mode are mutually exclusive.
– The Create Virtual Drive - Advanced option (Figure 24 on page 24) allows you to make
multiple arrays and configure the array parameters. Any parameters that are grayed out
are not available either because of the number of drives present in the system or, as
shown in Figure 24 on page 24, because of the lack of a cache module. Be sure to
always save the array creation at the end to commit the work. Note that when selecting
drives (Figure 25 on page 24), only those drives not already in an array or of the drive
type selected are displayed as targets.
