An IME volume can be configured with up to eight mirrored disks, or seven mirrored
disks and a global hot spare. Figure 2.3 shows the logical view and physical view of
an Integrated Mirroring Enhanced (IME) volume with three mirrored disks. Each

mir-

rored stripe is written to a disk and mirrored to an adjacent disk. This type of configu-
ration is also called RAID 1E.

LSI Logic provides the BIOS-based configuration utility to enable the user to create IM
and IME volumes during initial setup and to reconfigure them in response to hardware
failures or changes in the environment.
