7.6Partitioning a Logical Drive/Logical Volume

Logical volumes can be assigned to different controllers (primary or secondary). Default is primary.

Note that if a logical volume is manually assigned to a specific controller, all its members’ assignment will also be shifted to that controller.

As all the member logical drives are selected, press [ESC] to continue. The confirm box displays. Choose Yes to create the logical volume.

Press [ENTER] and the information of the created logical volume displays.

LV: Logical Volume ID

P0: Logical Volume 0 managed by the primary controller

S0: Logical Volume 0 managed by the secondary controller

ID: Unique ID for the logical volume, randomly generated by the controller

Size: Capacity of this volume

#LD: Number of the included members

7.6Partitioning a Logical Drive/Logical Volume

The process of partitioning a logical drive is the same as that of partitioning a logical volume. We take the partitioning of a logical volume for an example in the proceeding discussion.

Please note that partitioning can be very useful when dealing with a very large capacity but partitioning a logical drive or logical volume is not a must for RAID configuration.
