This section describes the BIOS-based options for configuring the server storage drives a bootable RAID volume.
Before installing an operating system (OS), you need to create at least one bootable RAID volume. The system does not recognize a storage drive unless it has a volume that has been created by the internal Sun Storage 12 Gb SAS PCIe 8-port HBA. To create a bootable RAID volume, use the LSI MegaRAID BIOS Configuration Utility.
The LSI MegaRAID BIOS Configuration Utility is located in the HBA firmware. Access to the HBA firmware depends on the server BIOS Boot Mode setting. If the server is set for Legacy Boot Mode, you can access the utility from the server boot screen. If the server is set to UEFI Boot Mode, you can access the utility through the server BIOS Setup utility.
