2.1.5 Partitioning Volumes

SteelVine Manager GUI. You must partition volumes for the host computer's
operating system before you can store data on the volumes. Refer to the
operating system's documentation for further guidance.

Important: Before
reconfiguring a volume, back up your data and delete
previously defined SteelVine Storage Reference Design partitions. If no hard disk
drives are connected to the SteelVine Storage Processor, the SteelVine
Processor device (the "Not Initialized" disk with no capacity allocated to it) will
appear. Do not initialize or modify
that device.
1. Right-click the My Computer icon on your desktop and select Manage from the
