2.2 LSI WebBIOS Configuration Utility The LSI WebBIOS Configuration Utility (CU) is an integrated RAID solution that allows you to create RAID 0, 1, 10, 5, and 50 sets from SATA/SATA II/SATA III/SAS/ SAS II hard disk drives supported by the LSI SAS 2008 controller. You can also use the WebBIOS CU to do the following tasks: • Create drive groups and virtual drives for storage configurations • Delete virtual drives • Detect configuration mismatches • Import a foreign configuration • Display controller, virtual drive, drive, and change parameters. • Scan devices connected to the controller • Initialize virtual drives • Check configurations for data consistency • Create a CacheCade™ configuration • You may use disks of different sizes; however, the size of the smallest disk determines the "logical" size of each member disk. • DO NOT combine Serial ATA and SAS disk drives in one volume. • The RAID setup screens shown in this section are for reference only and may not exactly match the items on your screen due to the controller version difference. 2-4 Chapter 2: RAID configuration

2.2
LSI WebBIOS Configuration Utility
The LSI WebBIOS Configuration Utility (CU) is an integrated RAID solution that
allows you to create RAID 0, 1, 10, 5, and 50 sets from SATA/SATA II/SATA III/SAS/
SAS II hard disk drives supported by the LSI SAS 2008 controller.
You can also use the WebBIOS CU to do the following tasks:
Create drive groups and virtual drives for storage configurations
Delete virtual drives
Detect configuration mismatches
Import a foreign configuration
Display controller, virtual drive, drive, and change parameters.
Scan devices connected to the controller
Initialize virtual drives
Check configurations for data consistency
Create a CacheCade™ configuration
You may use disks of different sizes; however, the size of the smallest disk
determines the “logical” size of each member disk.
DO NOT combine Serial ATA and SAS disk drives in one volume.
The RAID setup screens shown in this section are for reference only and
may not exactly match the items on your screen due to the controller
version difference.
