Managing an Existing Array

Making a bootable array

Displaying array information

Deleting an array

Initializing an array

Adding or deleting a spare disks

Making the Array Bootable

Follow these steps if you want your computer to boot from the newly
created array or if you want to change the boot order of existing arrays:

1 Select

Display Boot Order

from the Main Menu. The Boot Order for

Singles and Arrays window appears.

2 If the newly created array is listed as Unit 0 at the top of the list, no

changes are necessary; if it has some other unit number, highlight
the array name and press

to select it.

3 Use the arrow keys to move the selected array to the top of the list.

Then press

to deselect it.

4 When you are finished, press

to return to the Main Menu.

NOTE

You cannot use this procedure to change the boot order of a non-striped
SCSI disk drive (see the “Resolving Problems” on page 134 for notes on
booting from the Narrow SCSI BIOS). If you want to do this, create a
one-drive RAID 0 “array” from the disk.

Displaying Array Information

Follow these steps to display information about existing arrays defined
in your computer:

1 Select

Disk Array Operations

from the Custom Setup Main Menu.

2 Select

Display Arrays

from the Disk Array Operations menu.
