To split the RAID
1 Restart the CallPilot system and press Ctrl+M when prompted, to
enter the RAID setup utility during bootup.
2 From the Management menu select Objects > Physical Drive.

3 Select the A01- 2 drive using the cursor and press Enter.
4 Select Fail Drive.
Result: A warning message box appears. Ignore it and select Yes.
The drive status changes to FAILED. The alarm should start
beeping.
5 Repeat this process for the remaining two drives present on
Channel 2.
6 Press Esc three times to exit the Ctrl+M utility.
7 Reboot.
Result: The system reports that three drives are in critical mode
and starts beeping. This is OK; the system will still reboot.
Attention: The alarm can be silenced, but under no circumstances
should it be disabled. On the toolbar, select Objects
➝
Adapter
➝
Alarm Control
➝
Silence Alarm from the toolbar.
ATTENTION
Because the 1002rp has three physical drives, the RAID
splitting must be done at the Ctrl+M utility level. Do not
perform this procedure using the Windows MegaRAID
console. There is a risk of database corruption.
