Logical volumes can be assigned to different controllers (primary or
secondary). Default is primary.
Note that if a logical volume is manually assigned to a specific
controller, all its members’ assignment will also be shifted to that
controller.
As all the member logical drives are selected, press

Partitioning a Logical Drive/Logical
Volume
The process of partitioning a logical drive is the same as that of
partitioning a logical volume. We take the partitioning of a logical
volume for an example in the proceeding discussion.
Please note that partitioning can be very useful when dealing with a
very large capacity but partitioning a logical drive or logical volume
is not a must for RAID configuration.
