4.2 CREATING RAID GROUPS

To begin creating a new RAID Group, select “Create RAID Group” from the RAID Group menu

or right click on a controller in the RAID Groups window and select “Create RAID Group” from

the pop-up menu. This will cause the Create RAID Group dialog to appear.

Note: The term “right-click” refers to using the secondary button on your mouse to

perform the indicated operation. On a Windows system, use the mouse button that

you have defined to be the secondary button (by default, that button is on the right

side of the mouse, unless you have reconfigured the primary and secondary mouse

buttons using Control Panel > Mouse). On a Macintosh system, press and hold the

Command (Apple) key and click the mouse.
