Configuration Procedures
Below are a few practical examples of concrete configuration procedures.
3.5 Quick Create
The number of physical drives in the R A I D subsystem determines the RAID levels that can be
implemented within the Raid Set. You can create a Raid Set associated with exactly one
Volume Set. The user can change the RAID level, Capacity, Volume Initialization Mode and Stripe
Size. A hot spare option is also created depending upon the existing configuration. Tick on the
Confirm The Operation and click on the Submit button in the Quick Create screen, the Raid
Set and Volume Set will start to initialize.
If the Volume Set size is over 2TB, an option “Greater Two TB Volume Support” will be
automatically provided in the screen as shown in the above example. There are two options to select:
“No” and “Yes”.
Greater Two TB Volume Support:
No : Volume Set capacity is set to maximum 2TB.
Yes : Volume Set capacity can be set over 2TB.
NOTE: In Quick Create, the Raid Set is automatically configured based on the
number of disks in your system. Use the Raid Set Function and Volume Set
Function if you prefer to customize your Raid Set and Volume Set.
NOTE: When Quick Create is used, the Volume Set will be mapped by default
to both host channels “SATA&USB/0”. After the initialization is done, please
use the Modify Volume Set function to modify the host channel as you need.
