6 Select File > Set System Config to start the build process. The
build process begins for the array you created. If you created
multiple arrays, they are built serially in the order they were
defined. Alternatively, you can exit SMOR. Upon exiting, you
are prompted to save the configuration changes. If you save, the
build process begins for any arrays you defined.
For large redundant arrays, the build process can take several
hours to complete. You can exit SMOR and perform other activities
on the system while the build continues. An array being built can
be accessed during the build process.
If you exit SMOR and you want to monitor the progress of the
build operation, you can use the Storage Manager Array Group
Information window. See
information.
