PERC 3 BIOS Configuration Utility 173
Using View/Add Configuration
View/Add Configuration allows you to associate logical drives with physical
arrays (this is called spanning of arrays.) The existing configuration is left
intact, so you can also use View/Add Configuration simply to look at the
current configuration. Perform the following steps to configure the arrays
using View/Add Configuration.
1 Choose Configure from the Management Menu.
The Configure menu options display.
2 Choose Configure—> View/Add Configuration.
An array selection window displays the devices connected to the
current controller.
Hot key information appears at the bottom of the screen. The hot key
functions are:
<F2> Display the manufacturer data and PERC 3 error count for
the selected drive.
<F3> Display the logical drives that have been configured.
<F4> Designate the selected drive as a hot spare.
<F10> Display the logical drive configuration screen.
