WebBIOS Configuration Utility
4.8.2
Deleting a Virtual Drive
You can delete any virtual drive on the controller if you want to reuse that
space for a new virtual drive. The WebBIOS CU provides a list of
configurable drive groups where there is a space to configure. If multiple
virtual drives are defined on a single drive group, you can delete a virtual
drive without deleting the whole drive group.
To delete a virtual drive, follow these steps:
Caution:
Back up any data that you want to keep before you delete
the virtual drive.
1.
On the main WebBIOS CU screen, select a virtual drive.
2.
Click
Virtual Drives
.
3.
When the Virtual Drive screen appears, select
Del
in the lower left
panel, and click
Go
.
4.
When the message appears, confirm that you want to delete the
virtual drive.
4.8.3
Importing or Clearing a Foreign Configuration
A
foreign configuration
is a storage configuration that already exists on a
replacement set of drives that you install in a computer system.
In addition, if one or more drives are removed from a configuration, by a
cable pull or drive removal, for example, the configuration on those drives
is considered a foreign configuration by the RAID controller.
The BIOS CU allows you to import the foreign configuration to the RAID
controller, or to clear the configuration so you can create a new
configuration using these drives.
Note:
When you create a new configuration, the WebBIOS CU
shows only the unconfigured drives. Drives that have
existing configurations, including foreign configurations, will
not
appear. To use drives with existing configurations, you
must first clear the configuration on those drives.
If WebBIOS CU detects a foreign configuration, the import screen
appears, as shown in
Figure 4.56
