Setup and configure MD1200 storage array with R710
Hello Support & Everyone,
i have a Dell PowerEdge R710 and MD1200 storage array.
i have installed the H800 sas card and now both R710 and MD1200 have a SAS connection.
Now, I need to setup the MD1200 storage array. How do I go about setting it up. The R710 already up and have an IP address iDrac and ESXi installed and ready.

Hello YasirTanoli,
To configure your MD1200 you need to go into the PERC H800 bios. Once you are in your controller bios then you will see your MD1200 and all the drives. You will need to create a disk group and virtual disk so that your R710 will see the MD1200 space.
Here is the link to the user’s guide and if you look on page 26 it explains a little more on how to configure. https://dell.to/33WJUhi
