3.3 Operation Modes
FASTORA DAS-208CC Disk Array has three operation modes: Self-Diagnostic
Mode, Operation Mode, and Configuration Mode. We will discuss each of the
RAID disk array operation mode in the following sections.
3.3.1 Self Diagnostic Mode
To ensure flawless operation, the disk array has a built-in self-diagnostic utility.
Self-diagnostics will be performed automatically upon power up of the disk
array or right after you restart the unit. In this mode of operation, all
components will be tested. If any problem occurred, it will report to the user.
The Self-Diagnostic mode runs three major diagnostics. The first diagnostic
tests the CPU and supporting the core logic chips, internal bus, memory, SCSI
controllers, and RS-232 controllers. The second diagnostic tests the presence
of disks on each individual disk channel. It also checks the functionality of the
disks found. The last diagnostic tests RAID functionality.
