Configuring Storage Drives Into RAID Volumes Using
Oracle System Assistant
Use Oracle System Assistant to configure RAID on the server. If your server does not have
Oracle System Assistant, you can use the BIOS utilities to configure RAID.
Note - You can use Oracle System Assistant to configure RAID 0, RAID 1, RAID 5 or RAID
10. If you need to configure RAID 6, RAID 50, or RAID 60 RAID, you must use the BIOS
RAID configuration utilities. See “Configuring RAID Using the BIOS RAID Configuration
Utilities” on page 121.
