SCSI Device Properties

The Device Properties menu for SCSI devices allows you to view and
update individual device settings for SCSI devices connected to an
adapter.

Changing a setting for the host device (for example, SCSI ID 7) changes
the setting for all devices. Since there are too many fields to fit on one
screen, you must scroll left and right by clicking on the scroll indicators
at the bottom of the screen.

the three parts of the Device Properties menu.

<Activate>

Select this field and press Enter to activate a RAID array. This field is grayed out if
there is currently an active RAID array on the adapter.
If there are multiple inactive arrays on a physical adapter, this option allows you to
tell the RAID firmware which array to make active.

<Delete>

Select this field and press Enter to delete the currently displayed RAID array.

<Next Array>

Select this field and press Enter to access the next array of a multi-array
configuration. This field is grayed out if there is only one RAID array.
This choice is enabled for an illegal configuration situation where there is more than
one array on this physical adapter. The RAID Properties menu allows display of one
array at a time. This choice allows you to display and operate on the next array found.
