RAID operations

Standard 1.10

Configuring RAID using LSI320-1 controller and Ctrl+M

The configuration of the RAID card is stored on both the card and the hard drive. Typically you are not required to reconfigure RAID unless you are making a change to the RAID system (for example, if you replace the hard drives with higher capacity hard drives).

CAUTION

Risk of data loss

This procedure requires that the logical drive be initialized. When you initialize the logical drive, all data on the hard drives is erased.

Do not perform this procedure unless you are replacing the hard drives or you are rebuilding the CallPilot system (that is, reinstalling the Windows operating system and CallPilot software).

WARNING

 

 

Nortel strongly recommends that you not perform low

 

 

 

 

level formatting. Performing low level formatting results

 

 

in the drives becoming unusable.
