I'm trying to configure 6 146MB discs in 3 pairs of 2 as RAID 1 on my PowerEdge 2850 Server.

This is how far I get:

ONLIN A00-00 ONLIN A00-01

ONLIN A01-00 ONLIN A01-01

ONLIN A02-00 ONLIN A02-01

Span-1 Span-2 Span-3

From here, I can only configure 1 Logical Drive, and the BIOS only sees 1 drive. If I understand the tutorials correctly, I should be seeing something like this:

LD RAID Size #Stripes 0 1 146xxxxx 2 1 1 146xxxxx 2 2 1 146xxxxx 2

Where 3 logical drives appear, because of the A00, A01, and A02 array's I created in the beginning. Please help me fix this.

Thanks in advance.

I'm assuming you're actually in the RAID utility that comes up at boot time, right?

It sounds like your server is already configured with a single RAID 5 volume. You'll need to get rid of the old volume and create a new one. Go into Configuration and make your changes there.
