Appendix C: Using the Adaptec RAID Configuration Utility ● 93 Managing Existing Arrays To view or modify existing arrays, select Manage Arrays from the main ACU menu. From the Manage Arrays menu, you can: ● View the properties of an array. Note: Failed drives are displayed in a different text color. ● Make an array bootable (see Creating Bootable Arrays on page 93). ● Assign or remove hot spares. ● Modify power management settings. ● Change the cache settings for an array. ● Delete an array. ! Caution: Before deleting an array, back up the data to avoid permanently losing it. Creating Bootable Arrays Note: You may need to change the system BIOS to modify the boot order. For more information, refer to your computer documentation. The controller always uses the lowest numbered array as its bootable array. To make an array bootable: 1 Select Manage Arrays from the main ACU menu. 2 Select the array that you want to make bootable, then press Ctrl+B. Note: You cannot make an array bootable while it's building, verifying, or rebuilding. The array's number changes to Array 00, which makes this array the controller's boot array. 3 Restart your computer. Modifying Power Management Settings Power management settings switch the array to low power state when it is inactive for a specific time. Note: These settings apply to Adaptec 5-series and 2-series controllers only. (3-series controllers do not support power management.) To modify power management settings: 1 Select Manage Arrays from the main ACU menu. 2 Select the array, then press Ctrl+W.
