To assign physical drives to the new array:
1. Select all the Ready physical drives that you want to put into the new
array. Clicking on a drive either selects or deselects it.
2. Click the Add to Array button.
Physical drives show "A:new" to indicate the drive has been added to a
new array, but has not been accepted yet.
3. If you want to remove a physical drive from a new array, select the drive in
the new array and click the Reclaim button.
4. When the array is complete, click the Accept Array button.
All physical drives assigned to arrays display their array numbers to the
right of the SCSI ID. The numbering is zero-based. For example, A0
designates a physical drive assigned to Array 0.
5. The next new array appears. Assign physical drives to it as described
above. Be sure to click the Accept Array button to close the array.
To assign physical drives to an existing (not new) array:
1. Click one or more Ready physical drives to select (or deselect) them.
2. Drag the drives into the existing array. All selected Ready drives are added
to the array.
Drives cannot be removed selectively from an existing array, but the entire array
can be undone. An array cannot be reclaimed if it has any logical drives defined.
To remove an entire array:
1. Select the array. (Make sure that nothing else is selected.)
2. Click the Reclaim button.
3. Click OK.

Assign Dedicated Hot Spares

Hot spares can be assigned to the global hot spare pool for the adapter, or they can

array.
To assign a dedicated hot spare:
1. Select a Ready physical drive. Be sure nothing else is selected.
2. Click the Add Spare button. The Hot Spare Target window appears.
