Chapter 6 Creation and Use of RAID
The system supports RAID (Redundant Array of Independent Disks) service which provides
redundant storage for the data on disks. When the RAID 5 is adopted, there will be no data loss in
case of one disk failure in this RAID group.
Before providing the network storage service by single physical disk or RAID group, add the single
physical hard disk or RAID group to a virtual storage pool, to work as the physical volume, and
then create LUNs (logical unit number) on the physical volume to for the NAS, CVR or iSCSI
service.
