ICP RAID Console 10.4.1 Configure Host Drives The Express Setup menu option, Configure Host Drives, allows for easy installation of new host drives and modifications to existing host drives. This menu option is similar to the Configure Host Drives option in Advanced Setup (see Section 10.5.5). Unlike Advanced Setup, Express Setup does not allow the user to select a stripe size; instead, Express Setup defaults the stripe size to 128KB. Also, Express Setup does not have the Split Host Drive, Merge Host Drives or Partition Drive menu options. Note: Creation of a host drive as Single Disk, RAID 0, RAID 1 or RAID 10 is non-destructive so that the partition table of the new drive (which could have conceivably been used on another SCSI host bus adapter) could have valid data. To prevent this from occurring, run a surface check on each disk before creating hosts. Note: The XROM version of ICPCON may report an error incorrectly after configuring more than 30 host drives. This false error is indicated by one of the following messages: • No more handles • Memory allocation failed After the system boots into the operating system, however, ICPCON shows that all of the host drives exist. This limitation does not occur when configuring more than 30 host drives with the OS version of ICPCON. 10.4.1.1 Create New Host Drive From the Express Setup menu, select Configure Host Drives and press Enter to display a list of existing host drives, if any, in the Select Host Drive screen (Figure 10-41). For an unconfigured system, no host drive entries are displayed. Figure 10-41. Select Host Drive Screen 102 Software Installation and User's Guide
