Initializing logical drives
You can initialize the logical drives using batch initialization or
individual initialization. Batch initialization can simultaneously
initialize up to 40 logical drives. While individual initialization can
initialize single logical drives only.
To initialize logical drives using the batch initialization method:
1 Under the Management menu, select Initialize.
2 Use the space bar to select the logical drive.
The logical drive name is highlighted in yellow. To de-select the
logical drive, press the space bar again.
3Press F10 .
4Select Yes, then press Enter to begin initialization.
A graph displays the progress of the initialization until it is
completed.
5 After the initialization is completed, press Esc to return to the
previous menu.
When you press Esc while initialization is in progress, the
following options appear:
• Stop - The CU stores the percentage of the initialization
already completed. When you restart initialization, it
continues from the last percentage completed rather than
from zero percent.
• Continue - Initialization continues normally.
• Abort - Initialization is completely aborted. If you restart
initialization, it begins at zero percent.
To initialize logical drives using the individual initialization method:
1 Under the Management menu, select Objects, then Logical
Drive.
2 Select a logical drive, if there is more than one configured, then
press Enter.
3Select Initialize, then press Enter.
4Select Yes, then press Enter to begin initialization.
A bar graph displays the initialization progress.
