To see the hard drive information, enter the following commands and press <Enter>. You will see CONTROLLER
LIST and DISK LIST displayed on the screen.

After you create the array, you can enter the "rcadm -M -qa" commands to see the array information. In addition
to the CONTROLLER LIST and DISK LIST information, you will see ARRAY LIST information displayed on the
screen, too.
Example 2: Create a RAID 5 array with Drive 1~4 and the array size is 75 GB.
rcadm -C -r5 -d 1 2 3 4 -s 75000 (Figure6)
("C"=Createaarray,"r5"=RAID5,d1234=Drive1~4,"s75000"=Sizeof75GB)
fs0:\>rcadm -C -r5 -d 1 2 3 4 -s 75000
created successfully
