Chapter 3 HP NetRAID Config configuration information is not disturbed. For instructions on using this selection, see "Using Easy Configuration" in this chapter. • New Configuration also lets you create arrays and hot spares, but this selection lets you configure spanned arrays. If you select New Configuration, the existing configuration information on the selected adapter is destroyed when the new configuration is saved. For instructions on using this selection, see "Using New Configuration" in this chapter. • View/Add/Delete Configuration lets you view an existing configuration or configure new arrays. This selection does not disturb existing configuration information. It does not allow you to delete configuration information. For instructions on using this selection, see "Using View/Add Configuration" in this chapter. • Clear Configuration deletes the existing configuration. Using Auto Configuration Auto Configuration creates a configuration by following these steps: 1. Gathers drives with the same capacity into groups of five, four, or three. These groups become arrays with RAID level 5 logical drives. 2. Gathers pairs of drives with the same capacity together. These pairs become arrays with RAID 1 logical drives. 3. Configures any remaining single disk drives as arrays with RAID 0 logical drives. Auto Configuration does not create any hot spares. If you want to configure hot spares, use the Easy Configuration or New Configuration selections. 58
