Software Intel® Integrated RAID Module SROMBSASMR (AXXROMBSASMR) Technical Product Specification
3.2.2 Intel® RAID Web Console 2 The Intel® RAID Web Console 2 utility runs within the operating system. It is Java* GUI-based
and enables the user to configure the RAID controller, disk drives, Intel® RAID Smart Battery,
and other storage-related devices connected to the RAID controller or embedded on the server
board.
The utility is most easily used with a mouse, and standard right and left mouse clicks are
functional based on the operating system mouse configuration.
The Intel® RAID Web Console 2 includes a Configuration Wizard that simplifies the process of
creating disk arrays and virtual drives. Within the Configuration Wizard, the user can select from
several options:
Auto Configuration mode automatically creates the best possible configuration based on
options configurable with available hardware.
Guided Configuration mode asks brief questions about the configuration, and then
creates the configuration based on the answers provided.
Manual Configuration mode provides complete control over all aspects of the storage
configuration.
A Reconstruction Wizard increases or reduces the size of a virtual disk and changes the RAID
level of an array.
The following table briefly describes the available options. For a detailed description of these
functions, see the Intel® RAID Software User’s Guide (Document number: D29305-00x).
