How to set up Supermicro storage?

Question

Iron

I purchased Supermicro 826e16-r500lpb storage on the mat. board X10SLH-F/X10SLM+-F. I have never encountered such animals before. How do I get into the disk setup system? When booting, you can only get into the BIOS, the RAID configurator, and the menu for selecting devices from which you can boot. I set up the IPMI port in the BIOS, but after connecting to the storage via this port through a browser (as well as through IPMIView), I also did not find any traces of disk settings. Only a web interface standard for all Supermicro servers with support for accessing the server console via Java, cdrom emulation, and so on. It seems that this is not network storage, but just a server with twelve hard drive bays... Maybe I don't understand something?

Good afternoon, what disk settings do you want to see?
I guess that you fixed the hard drives in the sled and shoved them into the case and they were not defined anywhere. Then you need to go to the raid settings, create a RAID array there and add these same disks to it. and then in the OS you will already see not the disks themselves, but an array ready for use.
