RAID0 is configured in IBM X3650 M3 and installed EXSi5

For a first-time contact with an IBM server, it may be a bit of a hindrance. Last week due to an IBM server on a hard drive, so check down to find customer service (400-810-1818 5300 is the report X series server problem, need to provide the service on the four-bit MT code and seven-bit SN), find agents. After two days of tossing and repairing the hard drive. So think of these all right, plug in the hard drive on OK. Also not tube so much directly from IDC back to the company. Back to find that the server is still not connected, but plugged in the repaired hard drive server is working correctly ah. I am very depressed ah.

So ask management, said was last done is RAID0, I that shame AH. I thought the RAID1, the data synchronized finished just fine. Engaged in a long time is RAID0, and now ask or do RAID0. Well, I did not have an IBM server. What can be done, fortunately last time to engage in Dell R410 server experience.

Installing the operating system directly on the Dell R410 is not installed, especially for Windows systems, but requires the appropriate official boot disk and attention to the supported system types. So this time to go to the IBM Server installation system, it is natural to think that there will be such a problem. On the Internet to find information, said need to use serverguide, so went to the official website to download a 8.41 x86_64.

The next day to go, or not at ease, so consulted the IBM agent. To explain the situation, he told me to enter the IBM Webbios can be. All right, this one's not like serverguide. No way, with the burning of the Serverguide and agents issued Webbios Operation Manual on the road. I hope everything goes well.

To IDC room, connected to the server or Meng, did not see the agent said the Webbios interface, then there is no way to do according to his method of operation, a try the boot in the F1, F2, F12, or did not find how to configure the raid interface. So I took out the Serverguide CD that I burned last night, and it said, this bootable CD has an interface for configuring raid. Discover that using the boot CD loading process is a screen that loads when Windows system installs, feeling that the bootable CD is only suitable for installing Windows-class operating systems, and that the loading system interface does not move. No way ah, impatient Ah, the leader in the rush. Fortunately I brought the book past, continue to consult how to enter the Webbios method. Finally Kung fu pays off, hahaha. In addition to a small accident is the configuration RAID0 forget the previous step click Add to span, small depressed a bit, so no way to choose RAID0 hard disk size, and then returned to solve, OK can only say e-wen still have a la carte.

and online and Webbios operation Manual said ctrl+h into the Webbios, I in the boot process has not seen this hint, is very depressed.

Let's get to the point. Come down and say how to get into the Webbios interface and set the RAID0 method.

1. Boot, press F1 to enter the BIOS

2. Select System setting

3.Adpters and UEFI Drivers adapters and "Unified Extensible Fixed Interface" (Unified extensible firmware Interface) driven

4. Select the driver settings for the PCI under LSI EFI SAS Driver

5.Press 1 for EFI Webbios There are two ways to perform BIOS management, one is the web, and one is the command-line approach. We choose the Web method

6. Click Start
