(queued) for expansion or rebuild.
To install CPQONLIN:
1.
Load CPQRAID.HAM from the SmartStart CD, or from the Controller Support
Software CD and diskettes. (Detailed instructions are given in the README file
on the CD.)
2.
Load CPQONLIN.NLM from the same source.
3.
Open CPQONLIN.NLM and follow the on-screen instructions.
