Setting up RAID using the HPE Rapid Setup Software

This server only supports the HPE RSS automatic RAID function; manual RAID configuration is not supported.

When the server boots from the USB drive, HPE RSS prompts you to select your RAID setup.

Prerequisites

  • Make sure that HPE Rapid Setup Software USB drive is plugged into the server USB port.

  • Make sure that the server drives are of the same size and type.

Procedure
  1. Press the F11 key when prompted during system boot.
  2. Select the USB drive corresponding to the RSS USB drive from the boot menu.

    The server launches the HPE Rapid Setup Software.

  3. Read and accept the EULA to continue.

    The software scans the server for RAID information and hardware.

  4. To configure automatic RAID, click Continue.
  5. If RAID was set up prior to the OS installation, install the OS now.
