Creating a Unit through 3DM2
In 3DM2, creating a unit starts from the Management >> Maintenance page
(Figure 39).

To create a unit
1 In 3DM2, choose Management >> Maintenance.
2 In the Available Drives list, select the drives you want to include in the
unit by marking the checkbox in front of the VPort number for each one.
All drives in a unit must be of the same type—either SAS or SATA.
Although the best practice is to create a unit from drives in the same
enclosure, you can create a unit with drives from different enclosures.
3 Click
Create Unit.
A window similar to the one below shows the drives you selected, and
lets you specify configuration settings.
