Creating a RAID Set to Incorporate a Preinstalled OS Using the Sun StorageTek Card

The Sun StorageTek card allows you to choose from many RAID configurations. How you configure your system depends on your system requirements and the available hard disk drives in the system. The following example shows how to mirror the preinstalled Windows Server 2003 R2 OS. This is the better option, and all remaining disks (should there be more than 2) are incorporated into a data RAID set using the available options as shown in TABLE 5-2.

You will need the Sun Fire X4150 Server Tools and Drivers CD.

Follow these steps to mirror your configured Windows Server 2003 R2 OS:

1.Select Start and then Sun Link - Online Information.

2.Select Install Supplemental Software.

3.Check Sun StorageTek Manager.

4.Click Next to install the Sun StorageTek Manager program.

5.Select Start and then Sun StorageTek RAID Manager.

6.Double-click the local machine that displays by the IP Address of the Primary ENET connection.

8.Click the SUN STK RAID Controller.

All attached hard disk drives on Enclosure 0 and 1 appear.

9.To mirror the OS, right-click Logical Device 1 and then choose Expand or Change Logical Device.

10.Choose the appropriate RAID option. In this example, select RAID 1 for Mirror.

11.Choose a disk to mirror the OS with, from the physical disk list. Select the hard disk drive that best fits your needs.
