Before You Begin
The BIOS RAID Configuration Utilities reside in the HBA firmware. Use this procedure under either of the following conditions:
You want to configure RAID on the intended OS installation hard drive and the server does not have Oracle System Assistant or you do not want to use it.
If you want to create a RAID volume level 5, 6, 50, or 60 using the storage drive on which you plan to install the operating system.
You do not want to create a RAID volume, but the intended OS installation hard drive has not been initialized.
Refer to the instructions for creating a storage configuration using the WebBIOS Configuration Utility in the MegaRAID SAS Software User's Guide located at:
