As of the SWX image version 1.2, the DON'T ERASE volume that was created on earlier versions of
HP StorageWorks Network Storage System models is no longer used.
IMPORTANT:
The first two logical drives are configured for the storage system operating system.
The Operating System volume default factory settings can be customized after the operating system
is up and running. The following settings can be changed:
•
RAID level can be changed to any RAID level except RAID 0
•
OS logical drive size can be changed to 60 GB or higher
If the Operating System volume is customized and the System Recovery DVD is run at a later time,
the System Recovery process will maintain the custom settings as long as the above criteria are met
(RAID level other than RAID 0 and OS logical drive size of 60 GB or higher) and the OS volume is
labeled System. If the storage system arrays are deleted and the System Recovery DVD is run, the
System Recovery process will configure the storage system using the factory default settings listed in
the table below.
HP StorageWorks X1000 G2 Network Storage Systems do not include preconfigured data volumes.
The administrator must configure data storage for the storage system. See “
” on page 66 for more information.
The system reserved partition contains the operating system boot loader and allows you to enable
BitLocker Drive Encryption for the Operating System volume.
