Creating a RAID Set to Incorporate a Preinstalled
OS Using the Sun StorageTek Card
The Sun StorageTek card allows you to choose from many RAID configurations.
How you configure your system depends on your system requirements and the
available hard disk drives in the system. The following example shows how to
mirror the preinstalled Windows Server 2003 R2 OS. This is the better option, and
all remaining disks (should there be more than 2) are incorporated into a DATA
RAID set using the available options as shown in
TABLE 5-2 .
