Understanding the configuration summary chart

The configuration summary chart is in the Main Panel (that is, the right panel). The chart reports how the ServeRAID Manager will configure your controller if you click Apply.

Column Information displayed
1

The logical drive number.

If this is a new logical drive, NEW is reported beside the number.

2

The size (in MB) of the logical drive.

3

The RAID-level of the logical drive.

4

The letter of the array in which the logical drive is contained.

5

Whether the logical drive has a hot-spare drive available should a physical drive in the array fail (that is, become defunct).

If a hot-spare drive of the appropriate size is available, this column reports Yes.

If the logical drive is redundant (that is, RAID-level 1, 1E, or 5), but a hot-spare drive of the appropriate size is not available, this column reports No (in red).

If the logical drive is RAID-level 0, this column reports No (in black).
