Adding Physical Drives
The system’s CR3500 RAID Controllers must recognize the physical drives in
the shared storage area before you can create logical drives from them. The
controller will recognize all physical drives at start up. To add physical drives
to your configuration after the controller has started, follow these steps:
IMPORTANT: Before adding physical drives that have previously been used by another
ProLiant CL1850, it is necessary to delete any configuration settings on the drives. Failure
to do so can cause conflicting RAID settings on the CR3500 controller.
1. Physically add the drives to the system.
2. Run the CR3500 Configuration Utility to configure the drives.
NOTE: You cannot increase the capacity of an existing logical drive.
