To quickly access additional help regarding the storage pool screen, actions, and tabs,
click on the Get Help button in the Storage Pool help box located under the actions.
Creating a Virtual Drive
Once a storage pool has been created, the next step is to create a virtual drive. Virtual
drives are created in the storage pools and assigned to individual Server Compute
Modules. The following are the key benefits of virtual drives:
•
Virtual drives can be quickly reassigned to different servers with a couple of mouse
clicks in the Intel
®
Modular Server Control UI without powering down the server or
storage pool.
•
Virtual drives in a single storage pool can be set to any RAID level that is supported
by the selected storage pool.
•
You can quickly and easily expand the size of a virtual drive to increase storage
capacity.
•
The assigned server's operating system will detect the virtual drive (and its associated
drive position) during the boot process. Drive position 0 is the boot device. To the
operating system, the virtual drive will be indistinguishable from the local physical
drive on the server (if installed).
•
If the Intel
®
Shared LUN feature is activated and the operating system supports
sharing LUNs, a virtual drive can be assigned to two or more servers.
