Configuring Arrays and Logical Drives with Power Console Plus

Step 4 Save Configuration and Initialize

Save Configuration

Click on OK when prompted to save the configuration. The configuration is saved to
NVRAM and to the array.

Save to Binary File

The configuration parameters have been saved to NVRAM, but it is also a good idea to
save the configuration to a binary file. Choose Save from the Power Console Plus
Configuration menu. Type a filename and directory path for the Save file. The file
extension should be .CFG. Click on the Read Only checkbox to make the binary file
read-only. Click on OK when prompted to save the file.

Print the Configuration

Print the configuration by choosing Print from the Power Console Plus Configuration
menu. Keep a copy of the configuration for your records. This is important if you ever
need to call Toshiba Corporation Technical Support or replace a failed adapter.

Initialize Logical Drives

Select the correct adapter from the Adapter box. Select the logical drives to be
initialized. Choose Initialize from the Logical Drive menu.

The Initialize screen has a separate window for each logical drive. A bar graph displays
the progress of the initialization for each logical drive. Click on Abort if you must stop
the initialization.

Repeat this process for each adapter in the system.

Check Rebuild Rate

Choose the correct adapter from the Adapter box. Choose Rebuild Rate from the
Adapter menu. You can change the rate by clicking on the slider and moving it right or
left.

If there is more than one adapter in the system, click on each adapter and check the
rebuild rate.

The rebuild rate is not affected when you clear the configuration.
