Basic RAID Level: Select Basic RAID Level option, and then select RAID level from the Basic RAID Level drop-down menu.

ASM supports external and internal RAID controllers via the Advanced RAID Configuration feature.

Advanced RAID Configuration: If you select Advanced RAID Configuration, You will get two buttons Add Internal Virtual Disks , Add External Virtual Disk. There are four settings under Add Internal Virtual Disks, Add External Virtual Disk:

  • Virtual Disk: Lists the ID number of the virtual disk..
  • RAID Level: Select RAID level from RAID Level Drop-down menu.
  • # of Disks: Select number of disk according to the selected RAID level. You may specify "Minimum" or "Exactly" to determine whether ASM should create the virtual disk with the exact number of drives or use as many drives as available.
    • NOTE: If the number of selected disk is not correct for the chosen RAID level, template validation won't allow you to procede further.
  • Disk Type: Select disk type from the drop-down menu.You can chose Any Available, Require HDD, or Require SDD. to specify the type of drives to be selected for the virtual disk. Note that a virtual disk cannot be created with a mix of SSD and HDD.
There is feature, Enable Global Hotspares. This option is available for both Add Internal Virtual Disk and Add External Virtual Disk. By using this feature you can specify number of hotspares you want to set for disk.
  • NOTE: ASM supports MD1400 and manages MD1400DAS through second RAID Controller. ASM provides the ability to configure a second RAID controller to support the MD 1400 external storage array. In order to support this you must have a second PERC device in your system. It is recommended to use the PERC H830 storage controller with the MD 1400.
