8.1.5 Creating a Virtual Drive Using
Advanced Configuration
The advanced configuration procedure provides an easy way to create a new storage
configuration. Advanced configuration gives you greater flexibility than simple
configuration because you can select the drives and the virtual drive parameters when
you create a virtual drive. In addition, you can use the advanced configuration
procedure to create spanned drive groups.
Follow these steps to create a new storage configuration in the advanced configuration
mode. This example shows the configuration of a spanned drive group.
1. Perform either of the following steps to bring up the Configuration Wizard:
a. Right click on the controller node in the device tree in the left frame of the
MegaRAID Storage Manager window and select
Create Virtual Drive.
b. Select the controller node and select
Go To->Controller->Create Virtual Drive
in the menu bar, as shown in Figure146.
