4.8.4 RAID capabilities
Disk drives and solid-state drives in the Power Systems compute nodes can be
used to implement and manage various types of RAID arrays in operating
systems that are on the ServerProven list. For the compute node, you must
configure the RAID array by running smit sasdam, which starts the SAS RAID
Disk Array Manager for AIX.
The AIX Disk Array Manager is packaged with the Diagnostics utilities on the
Diagnostics CD. Run smit sasdam to configure the disk drives for use with the
SAS controller. The diagnostics CD can be downloaded in ISO file format from
the following website:
