Starting the Low-Level Format Program (Netfinity 7000 - 8651)


Starting the Low-Level Format Program



  The low-level format program erases all data and programs.
NOTE: Refer to the RAID adapter documentation for instructions for performing a low-level format on a hard disk drive attached to the PC RAID adapter.
  1.  If the hard disk is working, make a backup copy of all  the files and programs on the hard disk.
  2.  Select Format Disk, then, follow the instructions on the screen.

    NOTE: Hard disk drives normally contain more tracks  than their stated capacity (to allow for defective tracks). A message appears on the screen if the  defect limit is reached. If this happens, replace the hard disk drive

  3.  To install an operating system after the hard disk  drive is formatted, refer to the ServerGuide  documentation that comes with the server.
