Cluster Settings option is supported.
The Cluster Settings menu option is selectable only with ICP RAID controllers that are
equipped with cluster firmware. This menu allows the user to enable and disable the IO
channels of the ICP RAID controller for clustering. Special care must be taken that the IO
processors of a shared channel have different IDs, otherwise, there will be conflicts. A
description of each of the cluster settings is provided in
Table 10-10 . Use the up arrow and
down arrow keys to switch between screen options, and toggle a setting by pressing
<Enter> to choose a parameter.
