Setup of disk array (RAID)

When a RAID controller is additionally installed in the system
after purchase, or it is built in the server before delivery, it is
required to set the disk array (RAID level).
When “Simplified Setup” is selected from the “RAID
Configuration” during execution of the “Setup Information” of the
Server Setup TooL, the RAID controller utilities have no need of
operation because the RAID is configured by minimum setting in
this case. When “Detailed Setup” or “Skip RAID Setup” is
selected, or the RAID is to be configured without use of the Server
Setup TooL, it is required to set up the RAID level manually using
the RAID controller utility.

See “User’s Guide of RAID Controller”

If the operating system (OS) is installed in the server in which a
RAID controller is built in, be sure to install a RAID monitor and
control utility, and the Service after installation of the OS.

RAID monitoring/control utilities: Install Power Console Plus for
RAID controller MR518/MR520.

See “User’s Guide of RAID Controller”

NOTE: When installing Windows Server 2003 /
Windows 2000 using the Toshiba Server Setup TooL’s
automatic installation procedure, the RAID monitoring/control
utility (Power Console Plus ) and service can be automatically
installed.
