configured is displayed.

drives box.
Slow Initialize:

drives box.

the List of virtual drives box.

Set Boot Drive
(Current =XX):
Default: NONE
Selects a virtual drive to start the operating system.
If the system contains several virtual drives and you want to start the
operating system from the virtual drive other than VD0, you need to specify
the boot drive manually as shown below. Use the default setting in any
other cases.
[Setting procedure]
1. Select a virtual drive you want to start operating system from the List of
virtual drives box.
2. Put a checkmark on "Set Boot Drive (Current =XX)".
3. Click [Go].
IMPORTANT:
If no virtual drive exists, the List of virtual drives box will be blank. Use this menu only when
a virtual drive exists.
Even the "Set Boot Drive" is properly specified, the operating system may fail to start due to
Boot Priority specified in BIOS SETUP of the server.
Inconsistency may be detected at the first Check Consistency performed after the virtual drive
was configured.
