Using The Bios Container Configuration Utility - HP D7171A - NetServer - LPr Installation Manual

Using the BIOS Container
Configuration Utility
The Container Configuration Utility (CCU) allows you to create,
delete, and manage containers from the HP NetRAID-4M BIOS. A
container is a logical disk created from freespace and made up of
partitions on one or more physical disks. Refer to the Flexible Array
Storage Tool User's Guide for more information on containers. You can
use CCU to create a bootable container for the server. We
recommend that you configure the server to boot from a container
instead of from a single disk to take advantage of the redundancy
and performance features of that container.
Note:
If you are changing the configuration of a server that
is already in use on a network, log all users off the system
and shut it down in an orderly manner before you start the
CCU.
Note:
The CCU is a BIOS utility, thus it does not have the
same breadth of functionality as the CLI or FAST, as the
operating system is not running and not accessible to the
BIOS.
To select a CCU menu option, move the cursor to the option with the
and keys, then press Enter. In some cases, selecting an option
displays another menu. You can return to the previous menu at any
time by pressing Esc.
