• Runs as a local application or remote service
• Supports online array capacity expansion, logical drive extension,
assignment of online spares, and RAID or stripe size migration

Option ROM Configuration for Arrays
Before installing an operating system, you can use the ORCA utility to create the
first logical drive, assign RAID levels, and establish online spare configurations.
The utility provides support for the following functions:
• Configuring one or more logical drives using physical drives on one or more
SCSI buses
• Viewing the current logical drive configuration
• Deleting a logical drive configuration
If you do not use the utility, ORCA will default to the standard configuration.
