Converting a JBOD Disk to a Simple Volume
You can convert a JBOD disk to a simple volume. Unlike a JBOD, a simple volume is a true
logical device. It comprises a single physical disk and is not redundant.
To convert a JBOD to a simple volume:
1
In the Physical Devices View, select a JBOD disk.
2
In the menu bar, select Actions, then click Create simple volume.
Adaptec Storage Manager converts the JBOD to a simple volume and displays the logical
drive in the Logical Devices View.
Deleting a JBOD Disk
Caution:
When you delete a JBOD disk, you lose all data stored on that disk.
!
To delete a JBOD disk:
1
In the Physical Devices View, click the JBOD disk.
2
In the menu bar, select Actions, then click Delete JBOD disk.
The disk drive becomes available, and can be used to create a new JBOD, logical drive (see
page 64), or to expand an existing logical drive (see
Chapter 6: Modifying Your Direct Attached Storage
page 70).
