PERC stands for PowerEdge Raid Controller. Here we have 3 physical disks present. We will be configuring 2 virtual disks (VD) of RAID 5 using these 3 physical disks.
Now we have successfully created 2 VDs. Next step is to initialize both VDs.
Similarly initialize the next VD too. Once its completed you can exit from the PERC utility and reboot the machine.
VD00 - 100 GB
