Re: Creating RAID on DL380 G7
You can configure it with ACU (array configuration utility) which is found in the smartstart.
RAID level, how many spares, r/w cache ratio, stripe size, etc
What are you going to use the server for?

Re: Creating RAID on DL380 G7

Re: Creating RAID on DL380 G7
Actualy, it's not.
...since the Smart Array Controller does not create a "RAID Array"... it only creates an "Array"... which you then carve out logical disks that have a RAID setting.
You can mix and match RAID Settings in a single array.
I.E. With 5 drives in the array and 2 spares... you can have:
1 Logical Drive at RAID1+0 for the OS
1 Logical Drive at RAID5 for data
more logical drives with various settings depending on the usage of the server.
For a Domain Controller, you should not be using it to store or serve up applications and/or data (except maybe a local repository of software you use to install/configure your OS and basic utilities).
For this, a Single logical drive would work, but 2 logical drives would make future changes easier... if you ever needed to expand the array later.
