202 RAIDCFG
NOTE: When virtual disks are being created, the RAID controller starts the
background initialization operation. Virtual disks cannot be deleted until this
operation completes. This limitation affects mostly CERC SATA controllers.
NOTE: If the raid.ini file contains the [Reset] section, then the RAIDCFG utility
removes all the hot spares (dedicated and global) and virtual disks on the specified
RAID controllers in the system.
Assigning and Unassigning Global Hot Spares
Table 4-10 lists the RAIDCFG options, parameters, and pre-defined
