AMD Windows RAID Installation Guide

AMD Windows RAID Installation Guide is an instruction for you to configure RAID functions by using RAIDXpert RAID
management software under Windows environment. The RAIDXpert software offers local and remote management
and monitoring of all AMD SATA logical drives that exist anywhere on a network. Its browser-based GUI provides
email notification of all major events/alarms, memory cache management, drive event logging, logical drive
maintenance, rebuild, and access to all components in the RAID configuration (server, controller, logical drives,
physical drives, and enclosure). RAIDXpert is designed to work with AMD SATA RAID controllers. Other brands of
RAID controllers are not supported. Please read this guide carefully and follow the instructions below to configure and
manage RAID functions.

2.1 Components of RAIDXpert Installation Software

RAIDXpert installation software will install two major components to your system:
1.
RAIDXpert RAID management software: The RAIDXpert software installs on the PC with the AMD SATA RAID
Controller (the "Host PC").
2.
Java Runtime Environment (in a private folder): The RAIDXpert installation program installs a private JRE in
folder _jvm under the same directory where RAIDXpert is installed. RAIDXpert uses this private JRE to avoid
incompatibility issues with any other JREs that may be present on your system.

2.2 Browser Support

On the Host PC with the AMD Controller, where you install RAIDXpert, you must have one of the following browsers:
Internet Explorer 6.0, Mozilla Suite 1.7, Mozilla Firefox 1.0, or Netscape Navigator 7.1.
If you do not have one of the above browsers, install the browser first and make it the default browser. Then install
RAIDXpert. You must use one of the browsers listed above on your networked PC in order to access RAIDXpert over
the network.

2.3 Installing RAIDXpert

Follow these steps to install RAIDXpert on your Windows-based PC or Server.
1.
Boot the PC or server, launch Windows, and log in as the Administrator. If the computer is already running, exit

2.

3.
