# Promise VTrak E-Class configuration script

#
# Script Details: builds 3 RAID 10 LUNs, 1 RAID 1 LUN, and 2 Hot Spares from 16 drives (head unit only)
# for usage as a direct attached mail store
# Script Assumptions: no arrays or logical drives created
# (uncomment out array deletion if needed)
# script works with either SATA or SAS configurations
#
#
# Global controller settings
# LUN Affinity: enabled [required]
# Adaptive Writeback Cache: enabled [optional, recommended]
# Host Cache Flushing: disabled [optional, recommended]
# Forced Read Ahead: disabled [optional, recommended]

# Delete any existing arrays
# Delete array 0 thru 3
# Note: uncomment out delete array commands to delete any existing LUNs;
# all physical drives must be available for script to run
