Deleting A Controller
1 Select the controller and click Controllers  Delete Controller .
A warning informing that all the attached arrays and disks will be deleted is
displayed.
2 Click Yes to delete or No to cancel.
NOTE: At least one controller is required on the server. If there is only one
controller and you delete it, a message is displayed that the default controller was
inserted because the last controller was deleted.
Variable Conditions
To provide the ability to use the same RAID configuration in multiple logical
configurations, variable evaluation is provided so that a different
configuration for arrays and logical drives can be applied to different
situations.
Variable condition elements contain arrays and global hot spares, and are of
two types:
• No variables defined : This is the default configuration inserted with every
controller, and cannot be removed or moved from last in the order.
•
Vari abl e s d efi ned : This is where any variable is compared to a value using
one of the pre-defined operators.
NOTE: DLCI for Configuration Manager does not support variables created in an
encrypted format.
Adding A New Variable Condition
1 Under an embedded controller, expand Embedded Controller , and select
[No variable conditions defined] .
2 Click Va r iab l es  New Variable Condition . The Variable Condition
Configuration
window is displayed.
3 Under Variable Matching Criteria , you can set a rule to apply this variable
only if it matches certain criteria that you select.
4 Click OK to apply the variable condition, or Cancel to return to the Array
Builder
.
