Creating, adding, or deleting a RAID array

This topic provides instructions on how to create, add, or delete a RAID array using the LSI Software RAID Configuration Utility program.

Note: Before you create a RAID array using the LSI Software RAID Configuration Utility program, make sure that the server meets the required hardware configuration. For example, the server needs to have the required number of SATA hard disk drives installed and connected to the system board. See “About RAID” on page 72 for information about the required number of hard disk drives for each RAID level. If you want to create a RAID 5 array using the LSI Software RAID Configuration Utility program, the server also needs to have a ThinkServer SATA Software RAID 5 Key installed on the system board. See “Installing or removing the ThinkServer SATA Software RAID 5 Key” on page 102.

To create, add, or delete a RAID array using the LSI Software RAID Configuration Utility program, do the following:

1.Start the LSI Software RAID Configuration Utility program. See “Starting the LSI Software RAID Configuration Utility program” on page 74.

2.On the main interface of the program, do one of the following depending on your needs:

•If you want to create a RAID array, select Easy Configuration and then follow the instructions on the screen.

•If you want to add a secondary RAID configuration, select View/Add Configuration and then follow the instructions on the screen to view the current configuration and add a new configuration.

•If you want to delete the existing RAID configuration, exit the program and back up all your data on the hard disk drives. After backing up all your data, enter the program main interface and select Clear Configuration. Select Yes when prompted and follow the instructions on the screen.
