HP Smart Array P600-Controller - Manual (Page 17)

Configuring an array 17
Using ORCA
1.
Power up the server. POST runs, and any array controllers that are in the
server are initialized one at a time. During each controller initialization
process, POST halts for several seconds while an ORCA prompt message
appears.
2.
At the ORCA prompt:
– If you are connected using a headless console, press the Esc+8 key
combination.
– Otherwise, press the F8 key.
The ORCA main menu appears, enabling you to create, view, or delete a
logical drive.
To create a logical drive using ORCA:
1.
Select Create Logical Drive.
The screen displays a list of all available (unconfigured) physical drives and
the valid RAID options for the system.
2.
Use the Arrow keys, Spacebar, and Tab key to navigate around the screen
and set up the logical drive, including an online spare drive if one is required.
NOTE: You cannot use ORCA to configure one spare drive to be
shared among several arrays. Only ACU enables you to configure
shared spare drives.
3.
Press the Enter key to accept the settings.
