PS4210 Installation Guide

4  Software Configuration

Set the Member RAID Policy

The storage space in a new group member (array) is not available until you configure a RAID 
policy on the member. 

A RAID policy consists of a RAID level and a spare disk configuration. When you select a 
RAID policy, the member’s disks are automatically configured with the selected RAID level and 
the appropriate number of spare disks. 

If you used the Remote Setup wizard to create a group, the RAID policy for the first member is 
set according to your RAID policy selection when configuring the software, and the storage is 
ready to use. See 

Storage Allocation on page 23

.

If you used the 

setup

 utility to create or expand a group, or added the array to an existing group 

with the Remote Setup wizard, you must set the RAID policy for the group member.

Use either the Group Manager command line interface (CLI) or the graphical user interface 
(GUI) to set the RAID policy.

Using the CLI to Set the RAID Policy

To use the Group Manager CLI to set the RAID policy for a new group member:

1.  Log in to the group, if you are not already logged in. (After the 

setup

 utility completes, you 

will still be logged in to the group.) Use one of the following methods to connect to the group:

– 

Serial connection to a member. See 

Set Up a Serial Connection to the Array on page 13

.

– 

Telnet or ssh connection to the group IP address. 

2.  At the login prompt, enter the 

grpadmin

 account name and the password that you specified 

when creating the group.

3.  At the Group Manager command prompt, enter the following command to specify RAID 6, or 

RAID6-accelerated (available XS array models only), RAID 10, or RAID 50 for the 

policy

 

variable:

member select 

member_name

 raid-policy 

policy

For example, the following command configures member1 with RAID 6: 

member select member1 raid-policy raid6

Using the Group Manager GUI to Set the RAID Policy

For the latest information on browser support for the Group Manager GUI, see the PS Series 

Release Notes

. 

After you add a member to a PS Series group, you must set the RAID policy for the member and 
choose the storage pool. The storage in the member is available after you set the RAID policy.

To use the GUI to set the RAID policy for a members, use the following procedure:

Procedure

1.  Click 

Group

 and then click the group name  to open the Group Summary window.

2.  Expand 

Members

 and then double-click the member name. The GUI shows whether a member 

is configured or not.
