2. You cannot change an array to another type of array with a smaller capacity.
In some cases, a disk may need to be added to the RocketRAID host
adapter.
3. During the OCE/ORLM procedure, the redundancy level of the array will be
the lowest of the source and target arrays; e.g. if you ORLM a RAID0 array
to a RAID1 array, the array will be non-redundant until the procedure is
complete.
4. The OCE/ORLM process can be aborted and continued at later time.
However, you should always stop the transform progress from the RAID
Management software.
5. An unexpected system crash may result in data loss while performing OCE/
ORLM on an array.

To access the Device Management window, highlight the “Management” menu, and
select the “Device Management” function.
Changing Device Settings
Depending upon the hard disk in question, and support provided by the current

periodical S.M.A.R.T. status checks that send notification messages when
S.M.A.R.T. thresholds are exceeded.
