Configuring RAID
Configuring RAID
Use Storage Utility to complete the configuration of the L2 RAID chassis, as
explained in the following topics:
• “Configuring RAID network and SNMP settings”
• “Binding disk modules”
Refer to “Prerequisites for initial configuration” on page 100 to confirm that the
RAID storage is ready for configuration.
Configuring RAID network and SNMP settings
Use the Storage Utility to configure the following settings for the Level 2R RAID
chassis:
• IP address
• Subnet mask
• Gateway Address
• SNMP trap destinations
For Level 2R RAID, network and SNMP settings are set and stored on the RAID LAN
card. Therefore the combined RAID storage devices, including the two RAID
controllers and the optional Expansion chassis, is a single entity on the control
network.
The RAID storage device is configured by default for the SNMP community name
“public”. If your site’s policies require using a different SNMP community name,
contact your Grass Valley representative.
To configure these settings, do the following:
1. Launch Storage Utility from the K2 System Configuration application as in the
previous procedure.
2. As prompted, wait while Storage Utility gathers system information, then Storage
Utility opens.
3. In Storage Utility tree view, expand the node for the L2 RAID, right-click the icon
for a L2 RAID controller, and select Configuration | Network Properties .
The Controller Network Settings dialog box opens.
