RAID operations
Configuring the RAID controller after a hardware change
The RAID card's configuration is stored on both the card and on the hard drive, so typically
you are not required to reconfigure RAID unless you are making a change to the RAID system
(for example, if you replace the hard drives with higher-capacity hard drives).
Caution:
Risk of data loss
This procedure requires that the logical drive be initialized. When you initialize the logical
drive, all data on the hard drives is erased.
Do not perform this procedure unless you are replacing the hard drives, or you are rebuilding
the Avaya CallPilot® system (that is, reinstalling the Windows operating system and Avaya
CallPilot software).
Warning:
Avaya strongly recommends that you not perform low level formatting. Performing low level
formatting results in the drives becoming unusable.
