Creating a Disk Array (CLU)
The CLU provides three methods of creating a disk array:
•
Automatic
– Creates a new disk array following a default set of parameters. Creates a hot
spare drive for all RAID levels except RAID 0, when five or more unconfigured physical drives
are available. You can accept or reject the proposed arrangement but you cannot modify it. See
“Creating a Disk Array – Automatic”
•
Express
– You choose the parameters for a new disk array by specifying the characteristics
you want. You can create multiple logical drives at the same time, however they are all
identical. Creates a hot spare drive for all RAID levels except RAID 0. See “Creating a Disk
Array – Express”
•
Advanced
– Enables you to specify all parameters for a new disk array, logical drives and
spare drives. See “Creating a Disk Array – Advanced”
Important
A logical drive cannot be expanded once it has been created. To add
capacity, you can either add another logical drive, or, delete the existing
logical drive and create a larger one.
