Initializing Disk Drives
If an installed disk does not appear in the disk selection list for
creating a new array, or if it appears grayed out, you may have to
initialize it before you can use it as part of an array. Drives attached
to the controller must be initialized before they can be used in an
array.
Caution:
Initializing a disk overwrites the partition table on the
disk and makes any data on the disk inaccessible. If the drive
is used in an array, you may not be able to use the array again.
Do not
initialize a disk that is part of a boot array. To
determine which disks are associated with a particular array,
please refer to
Viewing Array Properties.
To initialize drives:
1.
Turn on your computer and press
Ctrl+A
when prompted to
access the ARC utility.
2.
From the ARC menu, select
Array Confi guration Utility (ACU)
(as shown in the
screen below).
3.
Select

(as shown in the screen below).
