Step Description
6 The StorTrends iTX installation begins, but before it proceeds, it will prompt you with a
message depending on how many hard disk drives you have installed. Your StorTrends 1300
storage appliance can hold up to 16 hard disk drives.
If there is only one hard disk drive installed, you will be prompted with a message stating,
"Warning!!! Detected a single OS disk for the StorTrends iTX installation. Any OS disk failure
will result in the system becoming unusable. Choose "YES" to continue, "NO" to exit from the
installation."
Welcome to StorTrends iTX 2.7
If two (or more) hard disk drives are installed, StorTrends iTX will automatically detect them
and will mirror the installation of itself over both hard disk drives. Prior to beginning the
installation, you will be prompted with the following message, "Detected multiple
disks. The OS will be installed on a RAID 1 array."
