HP P3410A - NetRAID 1M RAID Controller Installation And Configuration Manual page 65

Chapter 5
The Logical Devices box depicts the arrays on the current adapter, the
logical drives on each array, and the global hot spare pool for the adapter.
Logical drives are labeled as new and as LD0 through LD7. Click on the
+ sign in the yellow diamond if the view is collapsed (logical drives are
hidden).
The HP NetRAID Assistant Wizard is ready for you to set the parameters of the
new logical drive.
To define a logical drive that does not span arrays:
1. Make sure that the Span Arrays box does not have an "X" in it; if it does,
click on it to remove the "X."
2. Set the RAID level by clicking the arrow and selecting the RAID level
from the pull-down menu.
3. Set the logical drive size by either accepting the default in the box or by
clicking in the Size box and typing a smaller size. Setting a smaller size
leaves space for another logical drive on the same array.
4. Set the stripe size, read policy, write policy, or cache policy, by clicking
the Advanced button to display the Advanced Parameter window. Click
the arrows to view the choices, and select the ones you want. Disregard
the Virtual Sizing check box, because you can change this parameter only
in the HP NetRAID Express Tools utility. Click OK to return to the
Logical Drive Definition window.
5. When the logical drive parameters are set, click the Accept button.
The next logical drive to be defined is displayed. If there is still space in
the current array, the new logical drive is on it.
6. Define any other logical drives on the current array that will not span to
the next array. HP NetRAID Assistant Wizard keeps creating logical
drives on the same array until its capacity is used fully, or until there are
eight logical drives on the adapter.
