Installing Promise RAID Controller Software
If you are using Promise RAID controllers on a Windows Server 2008 64-
bit system, you must install Promise’s PerfectPath software. If you do not
install this software you can still access (read from and write to) your
RAIDs, but you will be unable to failover your controller.
Promise is working on a solution to this problem, but in the meantime
they have provided the following workaround.
1 Install the PerfectPath software on your Windows Server 2008 64-bit
system.
2 Restart your system.
RtTokenTimeout
Type the number of seconds to wait for clients
to respond to a token callback.
Rtmb
Type the number of MBs per second available
to real-time applications using the Quality of
Service (QOS) API.
RtmbReserve
Type the minimum number of MBs per
second reserved for non-real-time
applications.
Modify Drive List
Click to add or remove disks for the selected
stripe group. Use the left and right arrows to
add or remove disks in the
Primary Disks list,
and then click
OK.
Caution: When adding a disk to an existing stripe group, make sure
the disk is added to the bottom of the
Drive List. If the disk
is inserted in the middle of the list, the file system behaves
as if files on the file system are corrupted.
