Note: If the power supply has been turned on, proceed to the next step. Start the Storage Navigator-Modular program, and set the operation mode to Management Mode. On the Settings menu, select Display Details or click Display Details on the toolbar. Double-click the Spare Drives icon. 134 Chapter 7 Configuring Storage on the Thunder 9530TM V Series Subsystem 7.

Click Close. Acer | HDS AMS200 User and Reference Guide 137 7. 4. 3 Setting a RAID Group Note: It is recommended that you set at least four RAID Groups for the RAID group used when the NAS unit is connected. This sets the NAS system LU for the usual operation, the NAS system LU for backup, and the NAS user LU into another RAID Group. Note: If the power supply has been turned on, proceed to the next step. Start the Storage Navigator-Modular program, and set the operation mode to Management Mode. Click the icon of an array unit on the Main window, select the Settings menu, and then click Display Details. This operation can also be completed from the context menu of the RAID Groups box. On the RAID Group dialog, select or enter the RAID Level, Drive Configuration(Drive Type, Drive Capacity, Combination, and Parity Groups), and then click OK. If the RAID group setting is not successful, delete the affected RAID group, and try creating the RAID group again.

The unified LU cannot be unified or split unless the LU unifying function (a priced option) is validated. Delete the RAID group after splitting all the unified LUs in the RAID group. For the procedure for splitting a unified LU, refer to the LU Unifying Function User's Guide.
