RAID Configuration using the Intel® Embedded
Server RAID BIOS Configuration Utility
Description
The Intel® Embedded Server RAID BIOS Configuration utility allows a user to:
■
Create, add, modify, and clear logical drive configurations.
■
Initialize or rebuild the configured drives.
■
Set the boot drive.
■
Create a global hotspare drive.
■
View physical and logical drive parameters.
■
View and set adapter properties, including consistency check and auto-resume.
SATA and SAS systems use different versions of the Intel Embedded Server RAID
BIOS Configuration utility, but both versions use the same keystrokes and contain
identical menus. The utility menus show limited help at the bottom of the screen and
selections are chosen with the arrow keys and the space bar. A warning is displayed if
there is no logical drive available
to be configured.
Enabling RAID in the BIOS
RAID should first be enabled in the BIOS before you can configure it. For more
information, refer to
“BIOS Setup Utility” on page 282.
Entering the Intel Embedded Server RAID BIOS Configuration Utility
When the SATA RAID or SAS RAID options are enabled in the server BIOS, an
option to enter the Intel Embedded Server RAID BIOS Configuration utility displays
during the server boot process. To enter the utility, press the <Ctrl> + <E> when
prompted.
Note: The onboard SAS and SATA RAID features are
optional. Depending on your configuration, they may or may not
be available on your system.
Setting Up the RAID Feature
Please refer to the
Intel® Embedded Server RAID BIOS Configuration Utility Software
Guide
included on the ExpressBuilder disc for more information.
