Adaptec SCSI RAID 2120S/2200S Software User’s Guide

You cannot make a non-00 array bootable if the array is in a build/verify or reconfiguration process.

!Caution: The controller always uses the lowest numbered array as its bootable array. If you delete array 00 for any reason, the next lowest numbered array will become the bootable array. Use the Ctrl+B option to mark the correct array as the bootable array (by making it array 00).

If you want to boot from a stand-alone (single) disk drive, first create a volume on that disk.

The system BIOS provides additional tools to modify the boot order. For more information, refer to your system documentation.

Deleting Arrays

!Caution: Back up the data on an array before you delete it. All data on the array is lost when you delete the array. Deleted arrays cannot be restored.

To delete an existing array:

Do you still want to continue? (Yes/No):
