2.7 Summary of the installation
The flow chart below describes the installation procedures for SAS
RAID controllers. These procedures includes hardware installa-
tion, the creation and configuration of a RAID volume through the
McBIOS/McRAID manager, OS installation and installation of SAS
RAID controller software.
The software components configure and monitor the SAS RAID
controllers as following table.
Note:
The capacity of the replacement drives must be at least as

of insufficient capacity will be failed immediately by the RAID
