11-48 Upgrading Your Server
Notice
Observe the following notes on configuring a RAID System:
The installed hard disk drives (SAS drives or SATA drives) must the same capacity and
the same rotational speed. (The minimum number of required disks depends on the
configuration of RAID.)
Select/set a RAID level "RAID0" or "RAID1".
When installing a system in an internal hard disk drive, you should use "Express Setup" to perform
all the procedures for RAID System configuration, OS installation, and then OS setup.
Use Express Setup even when not installing a system. Start Express Setup, select [OS Selection] →
[Others]. The installer automatically performs all the procedures for RAID System configuration,
and then maintenance utility installation.
When making the setup in manual mode, use the RAID System configuration utility in the chip on
the board. You can start the utility during execution of POST that automatically starts immediately
after you turn on the server power switch. For details, see the document in the NEC
EXPRESSBUILDER DVD provided with the server. (The utility varies depending on the RAID
Controller.) For details on the data transfer rate, RAID, and RAID System configuration, see the
manual provided with the RAID Controller as well as the document.
