7.5 Creating a Logical Volume
A logical volume consists of one or several logical drives. Choose
“View and Edit logical volumes” in the main menu. The current
logical volume configuration and status will be displayed on the
screen. Choose a logical volume
number (0-7) that has not yet been
defined, then press [ENTER] to
proceed. A prompt “Create Logical
Volume?” will appear. Select “Yes”
and press [ENTER].
Select one or more logical drive(s) available on the list. The same as
creating a logical drive, the logical drive(s) can be tagged for
inclusion by positioning the cursor bar on the desired drive and then
press [ENTER] to select. An asterisk (*) mark will appear on the
selected drive. Press [ENTER] again will deselect a logical drive.
Use arrow keys to select a sub-menu and make change to the
initialization mode, write policy, or the managing controller.
