About LUN Configuration

The first step after connecting new storage to your workstation is to configure logical volumes (LUNs).

■ If this is a first time setup of the RAID controllers for XR-series storage, refer to Connecting to the RAID

Controller for the First Time on page 38.

■ If your RAID controller is already connected and configured to your network, then proceed to XR-Series

LUN Creation Using the XR Configuration Utility on page 36.

NOTE RAID configurations are designed and tested by Autodesk to provide optimal performance for media

playback on your workstation. Although the RAID management utility (Stone Storage Manager for the XR-series)

lets you customize LUN configuration manually, deviating from the documented LUN configuration processes

contained in the chapter is not supported.

Once the LUNs are created and configured, you must create a filesystem on your storage. See the application

installation and configuration guide for details.
