Creating a Second Logical Volume
There are three drives left unassigned and we will use two of them to create a 2 drive RAID 1
set. This will become the second logical drive. To do this we take the
View and Edit Logical
Drives
option again from the Main Menu and highlight logical drive one position. As with
creating the first logical volume pressing
e
will bring up a dialogue box asking to Create
logical Drive, answering YES to this prompt brings up a screen similar to that in Figure 4-20.
Select the RAID Level 1 option and press
e
. A list of the available drives appears as
shown in Figure 4-21.
The drives are selected as before, by selecting drive 0 and drive 1 in turn and pressing
e
to place an asterix (*) in the “Slot” field in front of each drive.
