This password option allows user to set or clear the RAID control-

ler’s password protection feature. Once the password has been

set, the user can only monitor and congure the RAID controller

by providing the correct password. The password is used to protect

the internal RAID controller from unauthorized entry. The control-

ler will prompt for the password only when entering the main menu

from the initial screen. The RAID controller will automatically return

to the initial screen when it does not receive any command in ve

minutes.

3.7.1 Quick Volume/Raid Setup

“Quick Volume/Raid Setup” is the fastest way to prepare a RAID

set and volume set. It requires only a few keystrokes to com-

plete. Although disk drives of different capacity may be used in

the RAID set, it will use the capacity of the smallest disk drive as

the capacity of all disk drives in the RAID set. The “Quick Vol-

ume/Raid Setup” option creates a RAID set with the following

properties:

1). All of the physical drives are contained in one RAID set.

2). The RAID level, hot spare, capacity, and stripe size options

are selected during the conguration process.

3). When a single volume set is created, it can consume all or a

portion of the available disk capacity in this RAID set.
