Set the Auto Configure Behavior of a RAID controller
About this task
By using the Auto-Configure Behavior feature in OpenManage 10.0.1 and later versions, you can enable a RAID controller (PERC) to automatically convert "ready" state (unconfigured good) physical drives into non-RAID physical drives. The current available options for setting the auto-configure behavior are:
- Non-RAID Disk—Converts the following types of hard drives into non-RAID physical drives after enabling and restarting a system:
- All "ready state" (unconfigured good) physical drives that are available in the system (online drives).
- An "ready state" (unconfigured good) physical drive that is hot-inserted.
- Off—The hot-inserted unconfigured good physical drives are not automatically converted to non-RAID physical drives. However, any available non-RAID physical drives will continue to stay in its mode online, and any physical drives in Ready state will continue to remain in the same state even after restarting the system.
To set the auto-configure mode of a RAID controller (PERC), do the following on the OpenManage Server Administrator page:
