Set Up RAID Systems
To set up RAID Systems:
1
Follow the instructions that come with your RAID systems to turn them on and
configure their network, management, and security settings.
2
If your RAID systems come with RAID sets already configured, they’re detected
during SAN setup and you can skip to “Step 6: Create a Metadata Array” on page 43;
otherwise, use the management software that comes with the RAID system to create
arrays based on the RAID schemes of your choice, leaving three drives on one system
unassigned so you can create a small, separate metadata LUN as described in the
next step.
For help choosing other RAID schemes, see “Choosing RAID Schemes for LUNs” on
page 28. Setup scripts for common configurations on Promise RAID systems are
available at www.apple.com/support/.
