Apple Workgroup Server 8550 - Manual (Page 58)

Backing up your files
Making backup copies of important server files is good protection against
possible damage to the originals. If a backup program was included with
your server, be sure to use it (or another backup program if you prefer) to
set up and schedule a regular, automatic backup of your files. You can also
back up your files manually, by making copies on another hard disk or
even on floppy disks, but such methods are less convenient.
Using Apple RAID Software
Your Workgroup Server comes with Apple RAID Software, which you can
use to increase the performance of your hard disk drives. To use Apple
RAID Software with a disk, you must install the Apple RAID driver on it.
For information about managing hard drives that have been prepared for
Apple RAID, see the Apple RAID Software Administrator’s Guide.
IMPORTANT Drive Setup, the disk utility from Apple Computer, cannot be
used on drives on which the Apple RAID driver has been installed. When a
drive is used with Apple RAID, you use Apple RAID Software to manage
the drive.
Mounting volumes
Each time you start up your Workgroup Server, it automatically searches
the SCSI buses for volumes and mounts any that it finds. Any SCSI devices
that are not turned on when you start up your Workgroup Server are not
found, so their volumes are not mounted.
If you later turn on a SCSI device, you can use Drive Setup to mount any
volume it contains.
