The Destructive Build(only available if ICPCON was loaded with +) fills all hard disks with “0” andno further parity calculation is necessary. This build method is pretty fast, but the buildmust be successfully finished before you can leave ICPCON (otherwise the build mode isautomatically changed to Non-destructive during the next boot). The Non-destructivebuild calculates the redundancy information from the contents of the data stripes. It takeslonger, but can run in the background, for example, during the installation of the operatingsystem. See Figure 10-91.Figure 10-91. Choose Build TypeA warning displays that all data will be destroyed after confirmation. (Figure 10-92).Confirm your choice by pressing . The array drive is created.Figure 10-92. Create Array Drive ConfirmationIf necessary, you can limit the array drive's capacity. See Figure 10-93.Figure 10-93. Drive Size DialogThe array drive enters the build state, for example, the parity information is generated.After completion of the build process the array drive's state is ready, or fault tolerant. SeeFigure 10-94.Figure 10-94. Array Drive Status
