8. In the Create a New Group or Join an Existing Group dialog box, enter the group configuration from

Table 7 and click

Next.

9. Click

Finish to exit the wizard.

If you added the array to an existing group, you must set the member’s RAID policy in order to use the disk

storage. Go to Set the Member RAID Policy.

If you created a new group, go to Storage Allocation on page 25.

Set the Member RAID Policy

The storage space in a new group member (array) is not available until you configure a RAID policy on the

member. A RAID policy consists of a RAID level and a spare disk configuration. When you select a RAID

policy, the member’s disks are automatically configured with the selected RAID level and the appropriate

number of spare disks.

If you used the Remote Setup Wizard to create a group, the RAID policy for the first member is set

according to your RAID policy selection when configuring the software, and the storage is ready to use. See

Storage Allocation on page 25.

If you used the

setup utility to create or expand a group, or added the array to an existing group with the

Remote Setup Wizard, you must set the RAID policy for the group member.

Use either the Group Manager command line interface (CLI) or the graphical user interface (GUI) to set the

RAID policy.

Using the CLI to Set the RAID Policy

To use the Group Manager CLI to set the RAID policy for a new group member:

1. Log in to the group, if you are not already logged in. (After the setup utility completes, you will still be

logged in to the group.)

Use one of the following methods to connect to the group:

– Serial connection to a member. See Set Up a Serial Connection to the Array on page 13.

– Telnet or ssh connection to the group IP address.

2. At the login prompt, enter the

grpadmin account name and the password that you specified when

creating the group.

3. At the Group Manager command prompt, enter the following command, specifying raid50, raid5,

raid10, raid6, or raid6-accelerated (only available XS array models) for the

policy variable:

member select member_name raid-policy policy

For example, the following command configures member1 with RAID50:

group1> member select member1 raid-policy raid50

1 2 ... 24 25 26 27 28 29 30 31 32 33 34 ... 48 49
