Chapter 5 Configuration Figure 5-3. HP NetRAID Assistant Wizard Starting Window 3. Click one of the following configuration modes: ◊ Select Custom if you want to define the arrays and logical drives and set their parameters. ◊ Select Automatic if you want the HP NetRAID Assistant Wizard to define the arrays and logical drives (and set their parameters) for you automatically. When you select Automatic mode, you can toggle the Redundancy check mark at the bottom of the window. If the Redundancy box contains a check, the arrays are automatically configured with redundant logical drives if possible. They will be assigned RAID levels of 1 or 5, depending on the number and capacities of the physical drives. If the Redundancy box is empty, all logical drives are configured as RAID 0, which is not redundant. See "Automatic Configuration" in Chapter 4 for a complete list of the rules used in Automatic configuration. 46
