Notes on Building Disk Arrays
Hard Disks
The capacity of hard disks used in the same disk array must be the same.
If you build two or more disk arrays for the system equipment, the hard disk capacity for each disk array need not
be the same. However, if a reserve disk exists, you need to be aware of some notes on operation. See “Reserve Disk”
on page 60 for details.
Installing Location for Hard Disks
It is recommended that you mount hard disks for the same disk array in successive extended storage bays for the
purpose of system administration. You are also recommended to record configuration of disk arrays.
If reserve disks are mounted, the mounting location will differ; it is best to record disk array configuration each time
it is changed.
