following steps, otherwise, proceed to step 6.
a. To bind unbound disks, right-click the Unbound node for a controller, then select
Bind LUNs in the context menu. (Peer controllers that share the same set of disks
are automatically selected as a pair.)
The Binding LUN… dialog box opens showing all unbound disks for the
controller listed in the Available Disk list.
b. Select RAID 3 using the LUN TYPE drop-down box.
c. Select five contiguous disks, then click the add button to add them to the
Selected Disks list. (TIP: Use ‘shift-click’ or ‘control-click’ to select disks.)
NOTE: As an aid in identifying a disk module’s physical location, select it in the
Selected Disks list, then click
Identify Disks. This causes the disk drive LED to flash.

The Progress Report dialog box opens, showing the status of the binding
process.
