Deleting Arrays

To delete an array:

1 Click the Delete button on the Logical Devices view.

2 In the Logical Devices view select the array(s) you wish to

delete.

3 Click Finish.

Deleting an array destroys all the data on the array. To help

prevent you from deleting the wrong array, a dialog will pop

up listing the array(s) that you selected in step 2.

4 Check that you selected the correct array(s) before clicking Yes.

Modifying Arrays

Modify allows you to make the following changes to existing

arrays:

■ Migrate an array from one RAID level to another

■ Expand the capacity of an array

■ Change the stripe size

Some operating systems, for example Windows 2000 and Windows

XP, support Online Capacity Expansion (OCE). That is, on

completion of an array expansion, the additional capacity can be

used without rebooting the system. Refer to your operating system

documentation for instructions on using the additional capacity.

Supported RAID level migrations are given in Table 3-1.
