Supports online array capacity expansion, logical drive extension, assignment of online spares, and RAID or stripe size migration

Provides different operating modes, enabling faster configuration or greater control over the configuration options

Remains available any time that the server is on

Displays on-screen tips for individual steps of a configuration procedure

For optimum performance, the minimum display settings are 800 × 600 resolution and 256 colors. Servers running Microsoft® operating systems require Internet Explorer 5.5 (with Service Pack 1) or later. For Linux servers, refer to the README.TXT file for additional browser and support information.

For more information, refer to the Configuring Arrays on HP Smart Array Controllers Reference Guide on the Documentation CD or the HP website (http://www.hp.com).

Option ROM Configuration for Arrays

Before installing an operating system, you can use the ORCA utility to create the first logical drive, assign RAID levels, and establish online spare configurations.

The utility also provides support for the following functions:

Reconfiguring one or more logical drives

Viewing the current logical drive configuration

Deleting a logical drive configuration

Setting the controller to be the boot controller

If you do not use the utility, ORCA will default to the standard configuration.
