Configuring RAID
f. Close the Progress Report and repeat these steps for other unbound disks. If
specified by your system design, you can bind some disks as Hot Spares, as
explained in
“Binding Hot Spare drives” on page 369
. When you are done, if
you did not bind any extra Hot Spares, you should have the following results:
For Level two redundant storage, on the primary RAID storage chassis you
should have two RAID 1 LUNs of two disks each, one Hot Spare disk, and two
RAID 3 LUN of five disks each. If you have the optional Expansion chassis, you
would have an additional three RAID 3 LUNs of five disks each.
NOTE: Controllers can take several hours to bind a LUN. Make sure you initiate
multiple simultaneous binding processes to reduce the overall time.
g. Upon 100% completion, click
Close
in Progress Report window.
NOTE: Do not proceed until all LUNs are finished binding.
4. Restart the K2 Media Server.
NOTE: Make sure start up processes on the K2 Media Server are complete before
proceeding. This could take ten minutes.
5. Continue with the next procedure
“Creating a new file system”
