Creating an Array With the ARRAYCONFIG UDMA Utility

Initialize array. When the Initialize Mode menu appears, select

Initialize Array to Z

ero

. A graph on the screen shows the

progress of this operation.

Caution:

If the drives contain data, all the data is lost when

you initialize the array.

Select array block size. When the menu of block sizes appears,

select a block size. (This menu does not appear if the array is a

mirrored array with only two drives.)

The allowable block sizes are 8, 16, 32, 64 (the default), and

128 KBytes. The default block size gives the best overall

performance in most environments.

Wait for initialization to complete. When you see the message

Initialization of [array name] is complete

, press any key to

return to the Disk Array Operations menu.

Create additional arrays. You may use

ARRAYCONFIG

UDMA

to create additional arrays (if disks are available), how-

ever we recommend using Adaptec CI/O Management Soft-

ware to create additional arrays. (CI/O is required for array

management in order to provide the proper level of fault toler-

ance and event notification.) See the

Adaptec CI/O Management

Software User’s Guide

for more information.

When all arrays are created, exit

ARRAYCONFIG UDMA

remove the

ARRAYCONFIG UDMA

diskette, and reboot the

system. After you reboot you can write data to the arrays. At

this point, you can make the array bootable as described in the

next section.
