View Current Configuration

The View Current Configuration screen displays the attributes of

any virtual disks already configured on the supported RAID controllers

attached to the system. You have two options:

• Accept the existing virtual disks without making changes. To select this

option, click

Back

NOTE: If you intend to install the operating system on an existing virtual disk,

ensure that the virtual disk size and RAID level are appropriate.

• Delete all existing virtual disks and use the

RAID configuration

wizard

to create a single, new virtual disk to be used as the new boot device.

To select this option, click

NOTE: RAID 0 does not provide data redundancy. Other RAID levels provide

data redundancy and may enable you to reconstruct data in the event of a

disk failure.

Select RAID Controller

The Select RAID Controller screen displays all supported RAID controllers

attached to the system. Select the RAID controller on which you want to

create the virtual disk, and then click Next.

Foreign Configuration Found

The Foreign Configuration Found screen displays only if a foreign

configuration resides on the selected RAID controller.

A foreign configuration is a set of physical disks containing a RAID

configuration that has been introduced to the system but is not yet managed

by the RAID controller to which it is attached. You may have a foreign

configuration if physical disks have been moved from a RAID controller on

another system to a RAID controller on the current system.
