4.1.2.8.1 Slicing
You can subdivide a RAID array into segments, or slices. These slices are effective
hardware partitions of all drives in the array. Each slice is a separate LUN and appears
as a separate volume on the host computer. After slicing, the LUN map must be set for
each slice.
Note
You can create up to 16 slices per array and 64 LUNs on the
controller. The total number of unique arrays’ slices can not
exceed 16.
Follow the steps below to select an array to slice or merge.
1. Select the array to slice or merge by clicking on a drive with an array number. The
capacity is displayed. By default, Slice 0 contains the entire capacity of the disk
array.
2. Click on Slice 0, and use the slide bar or buttons to free space for creating other
slices. Click OK to confirm.
