b. Leave Full Bind unchecked. Refer to “About full/background bind” on page 455 .
c. In the Bind Type drop down box, select RAID 1 .
d. In the Available Disks box, select two contiguous disks at the top of the list.
These should be the first two disks in the primary RAID chassis. (TIP: Use
‘shift-click’ or ‘control-click’ to select disks.) This creates a RAID 1 RANK for
metadata storage.

Selected Disks list, then click
Identify Disks. This causes the disk drive light to flash.

Progress Report dialog box opens, showing the status of the binding process.
g. Close the Progress Report and repeat the previous steps, selecting two more
contiguous disks to create another RAID 1 RANK for journal storage. These
should be the next two disks in the primary RAID chassis.
h. Make the fifth disk in the primary RAID chassis a Hot Spare. In the Bind Type
drop down box, select Hot Spare .
i. In the Available Disks box, select the fifth disk in the primary RAID chassis.
j. Click the add (arrow) button to add the disk to the Selected Disks list.
k. Click OK to close the dialog box and begin the binding process.
3. To bind unbound disks for media storage, do the following:
a. Right-click the Unbound node for a controller, then select Bind in the context
menu. (If the RAID chassis has two controllers, both controllers are represented
by the single “Controller” node)
