Adding a Dell SCSI Array Controller as a Secondary Controller

If there is already a primary (boot) controller and you are now adding a Dell SCSI Array controller as a secondary controller:

Dell Disk Manager Setup

If your disk did not come from Dell, use the Dell Disk Manager Setup to low-level format the hard disk before completing these steps:

  1. Set up one or more composite drives with the Dell DOS software array manager program.

  2. Select any RAID level supported by the controller.


    Note -

    All disk drives accessible by the Solaris software must be composite drives, composed of one or more physical drives.


  3. Save your configuration changes.
