Deleting Logical Drives and Disk Arrays


Deleting Logical Drives and Disk Arrays

This section contains instructions for deleting logical drives and disk arrays. In all cases, when you delete an array or its associated logical drives, all the data and programs in the array are lost.
Before proceeding, back up any data and programs that you want to save. You might want to use a high-speed back up device, such as a tape drive, to back up large amounts of data.

Deleting Logical Drives: In some operating systems, deleting a logical drive might change the drive letters assigned to the existing logical drives.

To delete a logical drive:

  1.  Start the ServeRAID Configuration program (see 'Starting the ServeRAID Configuration Program').
  2.  Select Create/Delete/Copy Log Drive from the Main  Menu, then, press Enter.
  3.  Select Delete Logical Drive from the next menu,  then, press Enter.
  4.  Use the Up Arrow (  ) or Down Arrow (  ) key to  highlight the logical drive that you want to delete,  then, press the Del key. The Confirm pop-up window  appears.

      All data and programs in the logical drive are lost  during this procedure.
     Before proceeding, back  up any data and programs that you want to save.

  5.  Select Yes to delete the logical drive, or select No if  you do not want to delete the drive, then, press Enter.
  6.  Select Exit or press Esc to return to the Main Menu.
  7.  Back up the disk-array configuration information to  diskette. See 'Backing Up the Disk-Array Configuration' for instructions.
