Creating a Disk Configuration Disk
It’s very important that you keep a copy of the signature of your fibre channel’s
stripe set. The fibre channel storage uses a level zero formatted stripe set, which
does not offer any media duplication and protection. As a result, if the stripe
set configuration is lost, all the video media information is lost too.
It is recommended that you create two copies of your Disk Configuration. If
ever Windows NT or one of its component is repaired or reinstalled, the Disk
Configuration diskette may be necessary to restore the stripe set.
A new Disk Configuration diskette should be created every time additional
disks are added to the system.
To create a configuration disk
1. Start Windows NT 4.0 and log in to an account with administrator privileges.
2. Go to Start > Programs > Administrative Tools > Disk Administrator.
The first Disk Administrator window is displayed.
3. From the Partition menu, choose Configuration > Save.
The following dialog box is displayed, prompting you to put a disk into
the disk drive.
4. Insert a diskette into drive A: and click OK.
5. Store the configuration disk in a safe, dry, static-free location.
To make a duplicate backup, you can also copy the contents of the
diskette to a safe area on your network.
