10.6.6 Array creation function
The array creation function edits RAID1 management information of HDDs and creates an array
with two HDDs. Use this function to restore backup data in an offline environment by using
commercially available backup software. The offline environment mentioned here means an
environment activated by Windows PE. HDDs that configure RAID1 are individually recognized in
the offline environment because the device driver for RAID1 that runs on the OS performs
mirroring processing in this computer. For this reason, backup data of software RAID1 can be
restored by applying the RAID1 device driver to the offline environment and by using this function.
This computer supports 32-bit Windows PE 3.0 and 64-bit Windows PE 5.0 as RAID1 device
drivers for offline environments. These RAID1 device drivers are stored in the following folders.
Apply these drivers according to the usage procedure of the backup software.
32-bit Windows PE 3.0
: C:¥Drivers¥SoftwareRAID1¥x86¥PE3
64-bit Windows PE 5.0
: C:¥Drivers¥SoftwareRAID1¥x64¥PE5
Use the array creation function as follows.
1. Display the
Soft RAID Utility
menu window.
<Notice>
• An array is created by writing the software RAID management information to the
drive mounted on the computer in a state where an array must be created. Note
that if this function is used for a drive that has operated normally, the drive can no
longer be used as the previous software RAID.
• Create an array with both drives mounted.
• After an array is created, restore the backup data by using commercially available
backup software.
