I am trying to setup my server from scratch. I have to install the OS
and set up SAN as database store. I also need to configure it. I have 4
drives so I am thinking of configuring it as 4 drive -RAID 5 without the
hot-spare. I have never done this before. Do you have any step by step
procedure on how to do this? Thanks ../Murli

Again, what are you trying to do?  Install the OS on the SAN?  Use the
SAN as a database store?  Use the SAN as a normal filesystem?  You have
to be more specific or we can't help you.
