You have successfully created a new RAID logical drive.
Viewing Drive Assignments, Split Physical Drives
After you create two logical drives from the same set of physical drives, press 1
on the Main Menu screen to see the View Drive Assignments screen (below).
In this example, observe how each of the physical drives in Channels 1, 2, and 3
are split between two logical drives. Extent 1 belongs to logical drive 1 (LD 1).
Extent 2 belongs to logical drive 2 (LD 2).
Under Assignment, the physical drives are divided into LD 1 and LD 2. For
example, LD 1-2 means logical drive 1, physical drive 2. LD 2-3 means logical
drive 2, physical drive 3.
Note that the combined size of the extents is slightly smaller than the total
capacity of the physical drive.
Unassigned physical drives are labeled Single Disk. You can use an unassigned
physical drive to create a new logical drive.
Note
You must be partition and format your new logical drive before you
can use it. See “Appendix A: Partition and Format” on page 29.
