to the

OK

button and press

Enter

to return to the Create Disk Array screen

11 Tab to the OK button and press Enter to confirm creation of the unit.

12 If the volume summary screen appears, review the information and press

any key to continue.

Multiple volumes will be created if you entered a Boot Volume Size of
greater than zero (0), or if auto-carving is enabled and the combined size
of the drives in your unit is large enough to divide it into multiple
volumes.

If you are not satisfied with how the volumes will be split up in the unit,
delete the unit from the main 3BM screen and recreate it using a different
Boot Volume Size. If desired, you can change the auto-carving policy or
the carve size on the Policies page. For more information, see “Using
Auto-Carving for Multi LUN Support” on page 71.

You are returned to the main 3BM screen.

Note:

The unit is not actually created and no data is overwritten until

you have finished making all your changes and press
