Nytro Cache Drive Configuration : Configuring a New Storage Device by Using MegaRAID Storage Manager

Configuring a New Storage Device by Using MegaRAID Storage Manager

NOTE  Nytro Cache Drive Group is created by default (see Auto Configuration) when you install a Nytro controller card for the first time. You can use the Nytro Flash modules to create only a Nytro Cache drive configuration or a Nytro Cache drive and Boot drive configuration (see Caching and Boot). If you want to create only a Nytro Cache drive manually, use the steps provided in Only Caching. If you want to create Nytro Cache drive and Boot drive manually, use the steps provided in Manual Configuration.

NOTE  By default, auto configuration creates only one Nytro Cache Drive Group; you cannot change it unless you delete and create a new Nytro Cache Drive Group manually.

ATTENTION  The SKUs (Nytro controller node) depicted in this document are merely examples. The SKU/version number/ date and time shown in the images/commands is based on the Nytro controller that is used by your production server.
