Re: P400 Array configuration in rx2660
Watch the console while booting. When the controller ask for pressing F8 to configure, press ESC 8 to start ORCA. Then configure the RAID, e.g. a pair of disks as RAID1.
Hope this helps!
Regards
Torsten.

Re: P400 Array configuration in rx2660
Hi Sayansaha,
POST runs, and all controllers in the server are initialized one at a time in the current boot order sequence. If a controller is connected to one or more hard drives, an ORCA prompt message appears during the initialization process for that controller.
2. At the ORCA prompt for the controller that you want to configure, press the F8 key. The ORCA main menu appears, enabling you to create, view, or delete a logical drive.
The screen displays a list of all available (unconfigured) physical drives and the valid RAID options for the system.
2. Use the Arrow keys, Spacebar, and Tab key to navigate around the screen and set up the logical drive, including an online spare drive if one is required.
NOTE: You cannot use ORCA to configure one spare drive to be shared among several arrays. Only ACU enables you to configure shared spare drives.
3. Press the Enter key to accept the settings.
4. Press the F8 key to confirm the settings and save the new configuration. After several seconds, the Configuration Saved screen appears.
5. Press the Enter key to continue.
You can now create another logical drive by repeating the previous steps.
available for data storage, format them using the instructions given in the operating system documentation.
