• An IM volume must have two drives. An IME volume can have three to ten drives. In
addition, one or two hot spares can be created for the IM/IME volume(s).
Creating an IM Volume
Follow these steps to create an IM volume with the SAS BIOS CU:
1. On the ADAPTER LIST screen (Figure 7-4), use the arrow keys to select an SAS
adapter.
NOTE: If a disk in an IM/IME volume fails, it is rebuilt on the global hot spare if
one is available. It is recommended that you always use hot spares with IM/IME
volumes.
