SunFire X4200 configuration question



I have a new X4200 with 4 internal drives.
I haven't worked with this hardware before but it appears there is an
internal RAID controller that can be used to strip and mirror the
internal drives. I can't find any documentation on how to do this.

In the past I've used SUN's Disksuite to strip and mirror the internal
drives but if this has a hardware RAID controller I'd like to use that.

Has anyone done this on an X4200 before or can point me to some docs.



Thank you.
