RAID 0 retains the spare drive.
5.2 RAID 10 Notes
- You cannot change the priority of a RAID-10 verify. Setting
the priority at the start of a verify has no effect. The
priority is still shown as high. Changing the priority of
a running verify on a raid-10 changes the displayed priority
until a rescan is done, then the priority shows as high again.
- Performing a Verify and Verify/Fix on an RAID 10 displays the
same message text in the event log, "Build/Verify started on
second level pool of pool 'Pool_0.'" You may see the message
three times for a Verify, but only once for a Verify/Fix.
- During a migration from a RAID 0 to any redundant pool like
RAID 5 or 10, Adaptec Storage Manager shows the status as
"Degraded Reconfiguring" for a moment, then the status changes
to "Reconfiguring." The "Degraded" status does not appear in the
event log.
5.3 RAID x0 Notes
- After building or verifying a leg of a second-level pool, the
status of the second-level pool is displayed as a "Quick
Initialized" pool.

6. Other Issues and Notes
6.1 Internal RAID Storage Notes
- If you initialize one or more drives in a snapshot source pool,
the snapshot target cannot be deleted. To avoid creating a snapshot
drive that cannot be deleted, you must delete the snapshot drive
first, before you initialize the drives in the source pool.
- With Linux kernel versions 2.4 and 2.6, the ARCCONF
DELETE <logical_drive> command may fail with a Kernel Oops
error message. Even though the drives are removed from the
Adaptec Storage Manager console, they may not really be deleted.
Reboot the controller; then, issue the ARCCONF DELETE command
again.
6.2 External RAID Storage Notes
- If you create a pool, reboot your external RAID storage
enclosure with an alternative image, then delete the pool,
the pool appears with an offline status when you reboot with
the original image. You cannot delete an offline pool.
- Under rare conditions, configuration changes made with Adaptec
Storage Manager or the CLI may be lost when you reboot your
enclosure with an alternate image.
- Adaptec Storage Manager allows you to create a pool without
an initiator. The CLI does not.
- When you export multiple pools, Adaptec Storage Manager displays
only the most recent one in the Logical devices view. When you
import a RAID configuration, the next most recent foreign pool
is displayed; and so on.
