Use
the
IBM
ServeRAID
Configuration
Utility
program
and
ServeRAID
Manager
to
configure
and
manage
redundant
array
of
independent
disks
(RAID)
arrays.
Be
sure
to
use
these
programs
as
described
in
this
document.
v

low-level
format
on
a
hard
disk
drive
–
View

controller
Consider
the
following
information
when
using
the
IBM
ServeRAID
Configuration
Utility
program
and
ServeRAID
Manager
to
configure
and
manage
arrays:
v
The
ServeRAID-8k-l
SAS
controller
that
comes
with
the
server
supports
only
RAID
level-0,
level-1,
and
level-10.
You
can
replace
it
with
a
ServeRAID-8k
SAS
controller
that
supports
additional
RAID
levels.
v
Hard
disk
drive
capacities
affect
how
you
create
arrays.
The
drives
in
an
array
can
have
different
capacities,
but
the
ServeRAID
controller
treats
them
as
if
they
all
have
the
capacity
of
the
smallest
hard
disk
drive.
v
To
help
ensure
signal
quality,
do
not
mix
drives
with
different
speeds
and
data
rates.
v
To
update
the
firmware
and
BIOS
code
for
an
optional
ServeRAID
SAS
controller,
you
must
use
the
IBM
ServeRAID
Support
CD
that
comes
with
the
ServeRAID
option.
