The CLU provides three methods of creating a disk array:
•
Automatic
– Creates a new disk array following a default set of parameters. Creates a hot spare drive for
all RAID levels except RAID 0, when five or more unconfigured physical drives are available. You can accept
or reject the proposed arrangement but you cannot modify it. See “Creating a Disk Array – Automatic”
•
Express
– You choose the parameters for a new disk array by specifying the characteristics you want. You
can create multiple logical drives at the same time, however they are all identical. Creates a hot spare drive
for all RAID levels except RAID 0. See “Creating a Disk Array – Express”
•
Advanced
– Enables you to specify all parameters for a new disk array, logical drives and spare drives. See
“Creating a Disk Array – Advanced”
