Network interface Name of a network interface on the array (
eth0
or
eth1
) that is
connected to a functioning port on a network switch.
IP address
Network address for the array network interface.
Note:
Each member must have at least one network interface on
the same subnet as the group IP address.
Netmask
Address that combines with the IP address to identify the subnet on
which the array network interface resides (default is 255.255.255.0).
Default gateway
(optional)
Network address for the device used to connect subnets and forward
network traffic beyond the local network. A default gateway is
needed only if you want the array network interface to communicate
outside the local network (for example, to allow access to volumes
from computers outside the local network).
Note:
The default gateway must be on the same subnet as the array
network interface.
RAID policy
RAID level and spare disk drive configuration for the array. The
actual number of RAID sets and spare drives depends on the number
of drives in the array:
•
RAID 10 – Striping on top of multiple RAID 1 (mirrored) sets.
•
RAID 50 – Striping on top of multiple RAID 5 (distributed-
parity) sets. Each RAID 5 set has one parity drive.
•
RAID 5 – Distributed-parity sets.
•
RAID 6 – Multiple dual distributed-parity sets.
