Creating the First Array
with the ArrayConfigCA
Initial Boot Array
Installation Utility
This chapter explains how to use the ArrayConfigCA Initial Boot
Array Installation Utility to create the first bootable or non-bootable
array on your computer. ArrayConfigCA runs from a convenient,
self-booting diskette. Before creating the array, make sure the disks
for the array are connected and installed in your computer (or array
enclosure).
Note:
This chapter describes the easy-to-use Express Setup
option. You can use the ArrayConfigCA Custom Setup
option if you want to have more control over the array
parameters of if you want to add spare disks to the array.
For more information on using ArrayConfigCA, see the
Adaptec Array1000CA Family Array Management Guide.
Follow these steps to create an initial array with the ArrayConfigCA
Express Setup. (You can probably complete the Express Setup pro-
cess by simply following the simple instructions that appear on the
screen.)
