Using View/Add Configuration - Dell PowerEdge Expandable RAID Controller 3 User Manual

Using View/Add Configuration

View/Add Configuration allows you to associate logical drives with physical
arrays (this is called spanning of arrays.) The existing configuration is left
intact, so you can also use View/Add Configuration simply to look at the
current configuration. Perform the following steps to configure the arrays
using View/Add Configuration.
Choose Configure from the Management Menu.
1
The Configure menu options display.
Choose Configure—> View/Add Configuration.
2
An array selection window displays the devices connected to the
current controller.

the selected drive.
– <F3> Display the logical drives that have been configured.
– <F4> Designate the selected drive as a hot spare.
