3.2 How to use the system quickly
The following methods will describe the quick guide to use this controller.
3.2.1 Quick installation
It is easy to use “Quick install” to create a volume. It uses whole physical disks to
create a RG; the system will calculate maximum spaces on RAID levels 0 / 1 / 3 / 5 /
6 / 0+1. “Quick install” will occupy all residual RG space for one VD, and it has no
space for snapshot and spare. If snapshot is needed, please create volumes by
manual, and refer to section 5.4 for more detail. If some physical disks are used in
other RGs, “Quick install” can not be run because the operation is valid only when
all physical disks in this system are free.
Step 1: Click “Quick install”, then choose the RAID level. After choosing the RAID
level, then click “Confirm”. It will link to another page.

Step 2: Confirm page. Click “Confirm” if all setups are correct. Then a VD will be
created.
Step 3: Done. You can start to use the system now.
