Chapter 5 Configuring the Preinstalled Windows Server 2003 R2 Operating System 59
Note – Configuring the Sun Fire X4150 Server RAID is optional, by default the
Windows Server 2003 R2 Pre-Install image is configured in a non-RAID
configuration. If anything other than a basic Mirror RAID is required, it is
recommended to perform a fresh install of the Windows Server 2003 R2 Operating
System (or other OS) in the desired RAID configuration.
