To set other policies for the unit
While creating a unit through 3BM, you can set a number of unit policies.
Each of these policies is already set to a default value, so you do not have to
change them.
Many of these options are listed on the Create Disk Array screen. A few are
available through the Advanced Options screen.
1 Use the arrow keys to move through the policies shown on the screen,
select the option you want and press Enter to choose it.
2 Press
Tab to the Advanced button and press Enter to open the Advanced
options screen, where additional policies are available.
For details about the various unit policies, see the following sections:
• “Enabling and Disabling the Unit Write Cache” on page 102
• “Working with Read Cache Settings” on page 104
• “Setting the StorSave Profile for a Unit” on page 111
• “Enabling or Disabling Auto-Verify for a Unit” on page 107
• “Rapid RAID Recovery” on page 113
• “Enabling and Disabling Queuing for a Unit” on page 110
• “Setting Overwrite ECC (Continue on Source Error When Rebuilding)”
on page 108
• “Initialization Method” on page 81

To create a boot volume of a particular size
You can specify a portion of the unit you create to be used as a boot volume.
This option is useful if you install your operating system onto the unit and
want to have a designated volume for the OS. The remainder of the unit is
created as a separate volume (or volumes if auto-carving is also used.).
