Creating a Second IS Volume

volume and an IM/IME volume. If one volume is already configured, and
if there are available disk drives, there are two ways to add a second
volume. The first is as follows:

1.

In the configuration utility, select an adapter from the Adapter List.
Select the RAID Properties option.

This will display the current volume.

2.

Press

C

to create a new volume.

Continue with step

of

Section 5.2, “Creating IS Volumes,”

to create

a second IS volume.
