Hard Disk Configurations that can be Built on the NovaScale/ft Server series
In the Bull NovaScale/ft series, you need to create mirrors on all volumes, and to make the volumes dynamic mirror
volumes.
IMPORTANT:
Dynamic simple volumes can construct dynamic mirror volumes by adding a mirror. However, dynamic
mirror volumes cannot be constructed from dynamic span volumes, dynamic stripe volumes, or dynamic
RAID5 volumes.
Volumes that are already used for constructing dynamic mirror volumes cannot be used to add a mirror.
When creating mirror volume, slot 0 and 3, slot 1 and 4, and slot 2 and 5 should be the mirrored pairs.
