Cannot see any Volumes

[bobit200]

I am not using an RAID cards in the eval server. Also, if I use the USB stick to boot, how does the system remember any settings when the server is rebooted? what version do I need to support HW RAID Controllers?

Thanks.

Have you already checked readme_5626 (release notes for the latest DSS V6 build)?

--------------------from readme 5626-----------------------------------
In order to install the software on separate LUN, please use RAID controllers with multiple LUN support. Please create a small 2GB logical unit for DSS V6.
When Running DSS V6 installer you will need to select the 2GB logical unit as the boot media.
The rest of the RAID space please create second LUN for the user data.
The following RAID controllers are supported as a bootable media:
MegaRAID, Smart Array, 3ware, Adaptec, ICP vortex, Areca.
For Smart Array please use the RAID management CD as the RAID BIOS does not support LUN management.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------

DSS V6 can be installed either on H/W RAID unit or on usb memory stick.
If you install it on a hard drive it will reserve the whole drive and it won't be possible to use the free space for volume group.

Only trail and full versions of DSS V6 supports H/W RAIDs, DSS V6 Lite version doesn't:
