If you cannot determine the RAID level using Disk Management, you can use the Dell
OpenManage Data Agent Configurator to view the RAID configuration of each
volume.
To view the RAID configuration of a volume using Data Agent Configurator, perform
the following steps:
1. Start the Dell OpenManage Data Agent Configurator.
2. From the Main Menu, select Devices and then click Scan Devices.
A window appears listing all available disk volumes and their associated RAID
levels.
Data Agent Configurator and Disk Management scan the disk volumes in the
same order—from top to bottom—so you can map drive letters from Disk
Management to the RAID volumes displayed in Data Agent Configurator.
