Initialize:
CAUTION
HP NetRAID Assistant allows you to initialize a drive at any time. Make sure
that the drive being initialized does not hold live data. All data will be lost.
Logical Drives are initialized in one of two ways:
1. From the Logical Devices box of the main screen, select the logical drive(s) to be initialized,
and choose Initialize.
or
2. Drag the icon of the logical drive you want to initialize and drop it onto the Initialize icon.
NOTE
If you have inadvertently reset your configuration, you can recover it by
immediately re-configuring the physical drives involved into the exact same array
and logical drive structure in which they had been, and by saving the
configuration without initializing.
