For simplicity, the Storage Utility only allows binding the ﬁrst available (at the top of the Available

Disks list) contiguous disk modules into RANKs. After binding, disk modules become slot speciﬁc

and cannot be moved to other disk module slots.

1. In the tree view, right-click the Unbound node and select Bind. (Peer controllers that share the

same set of disks are automatically selected as a pair.)

The Bind dialog box opens showing all unbound disks for the controller listed in the Available

Disk list.

2. Leave Full Bind unchecked. Refer to the previous section “About full/background bind”.

3. In the Bind TYPE drop down box, select the RAID type. Refer to the installation chapter earlier

in this document for your level of SAN for speciﬁc instructions.

4. In the Available Disks box, select contiguous disks at the top of the list as appropriate for the

RAID type. (TIP: Use ‘shift-click’ or ‘control-click’ to select disks.)

5. Click the add (arrow) button to add disks to the Selected Disks list.

NOTE: As an aid in identifying a disk module’s physical location, select it in the Selected

Disks list, then click Identify Disks. This causes the disk drive LED to ﬂash.

6. Click OK to close the Bind dialog box and begin the binding process. The Progress Report dialog

box opens, showing the status of the binding process.

7. Close the Progress Report and repeat these steps for other unbound disks.

8. Upon 100% completion, click Close in Progress Report window.

9. Restart the K2 Media Server.
