4. Press the Enter key to select the Create Group option. The cursor moves to
the drive matrix.
5. Position the cursor on each drive with a status of RDY(ready) that you want
to add to the drive group, one at a time, and press the Enter key. The utility
adds that drive to the drive group by changing its status from RDY to OPT
(optimal); and assigning a group letter, and a sequence number to the drive
as shown in Figure 6–16.
NOTE
To maximize the I/O performance of your
multichannel RAID subsystem, locate each
member of a drive group on a separate SCSI
channel. This allows the RAID controller
concurrent access to the disk drives.
