3.6.3 Practice Example: Creating a Stripeset
Click on the
Configure
button near the top of the main window, if necessary, to display the
three configuration buttons in the right side of the window:
Create
,
Modify
, and
CLI
.
To create a Stripeset, perform the following steps:
1. Click on
Create
.
The Create button opens and displays the Create window (see Figure 3–6). Use the Cre-
ate window to select from the following choices of storageset types:
SPARE
,
RAID 0 -
Stripeset
,
RAID 1 - Mirrorset
,
RAID 5/3 - Raidset
,
RAID 0+1
, and
Single Disk - JBOD
2. For this example, select
RAID 0 - Stripeset
. Then, in the
Set Name
box, type a name for
the Stripeset. For our example, the name is “
Stripe1
”. Click on
OK
when finished.
The RAID Manager responds by displaying a message window advising you to click on
at least two disks to use for the Stripeset.
3. Select the disks to use for the Stripeset. In our example, we select three. When finished,
click on
Create
in the message window.
The RAID Manager responds by updating the physical view (see Figure 3–8). The physi-
cal view now shows the three, stripeset disks superimposed with the letter “
0
,” to indi-
cate RAID 0 - Stripeset. Note also that the status bar at the bottom of the window has
been updated to reflect the added component.
