Step 4: Setting Up the Stripe Set Again
Once the new hard disk is properly installed in the video system, you
have to set up the disk stripe set again to provide for a sufficient fast
location for real-time operations.
A stripe set is a group of hard disks that can be accessed through the
operating system as one drive. To set up a stripe set you have to con-
figure the hard disks properly via the operating system tools:
! Switch on the video system and log on with administrative rights.
! Under Windows start the tool to manage and administrate hard
disks (’Disk Management’).
The tool now displays all video hard disks including the newly in-
stalled one. If not, perform a system rescan or reboot your video sys-
tem.
! Configure the hard disks that should be used as video hard disks
as ’Dynamic Disks’.
! After that create a partition on the stripe set (’Stripeset Partition’)
and set the drive letter to ’V’ (for ’video’).
! As a next step you will be asked automatically to format the stripe
set. Further information about this and what to observe during this
procedure can be found in section “Notes on Formatting the Video
Hard Disks” on page 5-6.
Once the formatting process is finished, the stripe set is set up and
the steps to replace a video hard disk are complete. Now you can se-
lect the stripe set as a normal disk drive in a standard file manager
and your system is fully operational again.
In general, a configuration of hard disks is part of how the op-
erating system manages hard disks. The following provides
some hints only. Further details and descriptions can be
found in the documentation of the operating system or the re-
spective tool.
Do not vary from the original specification and configuration
of the stripe set, i.e. use the same amount and type of hard
disks again. Otherwise a loss of performance might occur.
Some DVS maintenance tools depend on a correct drive
letter and volume name for the Pronto2K/ProntoHD stripe
set.
