4.1.2.8.1 Slicing
You can subdivide a RAID array into segments, or slices. These slices are effective hardware
partitions of all drives in the array. Each slice is a separate LUN and appears as a separate
volume on the host computer. After slicing, the LUN map must be set for each slice.
Note
You can create up to 16 slices per array and 64 LUNs on the controller.
The total number of unique arrays' slices can not exceed 16.
Follow the steps below to select an array to slice or merge.
1. Select the array to slice or merge by clicking on a drive with an array number. The capacity
is displayed. By default, Slice 0 contains the entire capacity of the disk array.
2. Click on Slice 0, and use the slide bar or buttons to free space for creating other slices. Click
OK to confirm.
