Note If an empty space does not match the drive icon or controller icon you selected, the Add button
will be inactivated. This happens when you try to place a drive in an inadequate canister (e.g. you
can not place a drive in a controller canister; and you should arrange your drives according to actual
locations and SCSI ID sequence).
6 Repeat the above procedure to add more drives. Using this same method, monitoring device icons
can also be added to defined enclosures.
Note Drives may only be added to one enclosure and the enclosure window provides no “auto-update”
function. If drives are added or removed from your array, you will need to update the enclosure
settings in the
Enclosure window.
7 The
Enclosure window also supports a logical view of connected drives. Click on the Logical button
to display the logical relationship among physical drives. Physical drives configured in a logical drive
group will be displayed in the same color. If there are more than one logical drives, different colors
will be displayed to distinguish members of different logical drives.See Figure 10–9.
Note Physical View under the RAID View window also provides a real-time report on drive status, using
the same symbols and colors to represent various conditions. What you see in the Enclosure window
is also reflected in the Physical View. These windows, however, differ in the way physical drives are
presented; in the Enclosure window, the drives should be arranged according to their actual
locations in the drive bays, while in the Physical View, the drives are arranged according to channel
connections.
