The Logical Devices view displays information about the top-level arrays or volumes created using the physical devices. This information includes the array capacity, the array name, and the type of array.
Initially a collapsed view of the top-level arrays is displayed. In this collapsed view, the RAID level of each device, as well as whether it is protected by a hot spare (or global hot spare), is visible.
You can Create, Modify, and Delete arrays in the Logical Devices view. Each option opens a wizard that presents the steps necessary to create a new array, modify an existing array, and delete existing arrays on this controller.
When you highlight either a physical or logical device, the related components are highlighted in the other view. For example, when you highlight an array in the Logical Devices view, the physical drives that are members of that array are highlighted in the Physical Devices view. If the array is using only part of the available storage, those segments are also highlighted.
The Options
button allows you to display second-level arrays if your controller supports
them.
Selecting an array also highlights any second-level arrays that form a top-level array in the Logical Devices view.
