Working in the 3BM Screens

The main 3BM screen (Figure 30) shows the current configuration for the

drives attached to your controller, and a list of any available drives. Unusable

and incomplete drives are also shown.

Figure 30. 3BM Main Display

You will see one or more of the following sections in the main 3BM screen:

•

Available Drives lists any unconfigured, independent drives (JBODs)

that are not associated with an array, and hot spares. If this section does

not appear, there are no available drives.

•

Exportable Units lists the existing units, along with the drives contained

in each. These are the units that will be available to the operating system

when you boot your computer. If this section does not appear, no units

have been configured.

If you have more than one unit, the boot unit is the one at the top of the

list. (You can change the order by highlighting a unit and pressing the

PgUp or PgDn key.)

•

Unusable Arrays lists any RAID configuration missing too many drives

to construct the unit. For example, a RAID 5 unit with two or more drives

missing would appear in this list.

•

Incomplete Drives and Others lists drives that are remaining from a unit

with missing or failed drives, drives that are not usable, and drives that

were part of a unit on a 3ware 7000/8000-series controller, and contain

data that needs to be updated before your 3ware 9000 series controller can

use them. (If you want to move a unit from a 7/8000 controller to the 9000

controller, you must convert the drives first. For more information, see the

section “Moving a Unit from One Controller to Another” on page 126.)

When some of the drives are remaining from a unit, you can power down

and add the missing drives to complete the unit. To use drives that are
