If you want to create a multiple-partition array, see
Multiple-Partition Array on page
3 Select Yes to create a single-partition array and press Enter.
The LUN prompt appears.
4 Type the LUN for the array and press Enter.
The LUN that appears is the suggested default LUN assignment.
If the letters OV appear before a LUN, it indicates that the
selection overlaps with a soft LUN, probably the controller or
SAF-TE Environmental Processor (SEP) LUN. You can create an
array at an overlapped LUN, but it is not visible to the host
system until you reboot the controller.
Note: Most Unix, Linux, and Macintosh OSs require that the
controller LUN be a higher value than all partition LUNs.
Before creating your first partition, change the controller
LUN to a higher value or select None (best choice) if you
are not using CAPI (Configuration Application
Programming Interface) to manage the controller. This
allows your first partition to be seen at LUN 0.
The system warns you about the LUN for Unix and Macintosh,
as above, the first time you create an array. Press Enter and the
system asks if you want to be warned again. Select No to avoid
receiving this warning again; otherwise, select Yes to be warned
the next time you create an array.
The RAID Type menu appears.
5 Select a RAID type and press Enter.
Note: A RAID 10 array is automatically created when there
are more than two disk drives in a mirrored array. See
Appendix A, Storage
If you selected RAID 50 as the array type, the Select RAID 50
Array Size menu appears with all possible configurations for
array and disk drive combinations. Select the configuration you
want, press Enter, and skip to Step 7.
