Step 3 Run The Wizard - LSI SCSI 320-0 Configuration

Step 3 Run the Wizard

If the RAID system is already up and running and you would like to reconfigure
the adapter, choose Rescan from the Adapter menu to make sure that Power
Console Plus recognizes all physical drives. Choose Wizard from the
Configuration menu. The Wizard screen appears as follows. Choose Custom or
Automatic. Click on the Next button.
Types of Configuration You can choose either Custom or Automatic configuration.
Type
Custom You define the arrays and logical drives, and set parameters.
Select this option if you have specific requirements for the RAID
system.
Automatic Power Console Plus Wizard automatically defines arrays and
logical drives, and automatically sets all parameters.
Click on the Redundancy box to instruct the Wizard to
automatically configure redundant arrays when possible.
Select this option to configure an optimal RAID system.
Automatic Configuration If you chose automatic configuration, the proposed RAID
configuration is displayed. The drive SCSI ID follows the drive icons. The
current adapter with all arrays, logical drives, and hot spares, is shown in the
Logical Devices window. Each logical drive has a label (such as LD1), the
RAID level, and the drive capacity. Spanned arrays have hyphenated array
numbers (for example: LD1-1). Click on Finish to complete the configuration
process. You can click on Back if you want to change anything.
Undoing the Array Click on Reclaim to undo the array. It may be easier to click on Cancel and
begin the configuration process again. An array can be reclaimed only if no
logical drives are defined in the array. Undo the logical drive on the Logical
Drive Definition screen, click on Back to display the Array Definition screen,
select the array to be reclaimed, and click on Reclaim.
