Select the drive at Port 1: SCSI ID 7 and click the
Assign Spare to Array
button
in the lower middle part of the screen.
NOTE:
You can share any given spare among several arrays. You can also assign
several spares to just one array, or share one group of spares among several arrays. In all
such cases, be sure that the capacity of each spare is large enough for each array that it
is assigned to. (The capacity of a spare must be no less than that of any other drives in
the same array.)
The
Create Drive Array
screen now looks like Figure 7-16.
