Cluster Mode Use this option to enable or disable cluster mode. The default is Disabled .
When this is disabled, the system operates in standard mode. A cluster is
a grouping of independent servers that can access the same data storage
and provide services to a common set of clients.
Initiator ID Identifying number for the MegaRAID card. The default is 7. You can
change the Initiator ID only when you are in cluster mode. You cannot
change the ID while in standard mode. The ID can be a number from 0 to
15. We recommend that you use 6 or 7. When you are in standard mode,
the ID is always 7.
Rebuild Rate Use this option to select the rebuild rate for drives attached to the selected
adapter. The default is 30 percent. The rebuild rate is the percentage of
system resources dedicated to rebuilding a failed drive. A rebuild rate of 100
percent means the system is totally dedicated to rebuilding a failed drive.

reconstruction, rebuild, or check consistency to continue when the system
restarts after a power failure, reset, or hard boot. The default is

generator. The default is

boot device is on the RAID controller, the BIOS must be enabled; otherwise,
