Drive Status Icon (continued)
• Rebuilding - Drive members of an array are in rebuild mode.
• Locate - Clicking the “arrow” icon next to the “specific array” in
the Arrays section will display an “arrow” icon on all the drive
members of that array in the front enclosure view.
• Critical - Drive(s) are members of a fault tolerant array and are
in a non-fault tolerant state.*
*NOTE : With RAID 6 disk arrays, the loss of a single drive does
not place the array in a non-fault tolerant state. The drive status
icon is the same for single or dual drive failures. To verify
whether the array is in a Non Fault Tolerant vs. Fault Tolerant
Warning state, identify the number of drive failures for the array.
Two drive failures will put the RAID 6 array in a non fault tolerant
state. Passing the mouse pointer over the status icon (yellow)
will display the array’s status, also in the Array Information
screen the status is displayed.
• Updating Firmware - This icon will appear when the subject
drive’s firmware is being updated.
• Failed Array Member - This icon will appear on all disk drives
that are members of an array that has failed. For example if you
remove a drive from a RAID 0 array or a drive in that array fails,
the remaining drive members will have this icon displayed
indicating that array has failed. If you accidentally remove the
wrong drive in a critical redundant array (RAID 5) instead of the
failed drive, that array will have failed and its member drives will
have this icon displayed. Re-inserting the drive that was
accidentally removed will put the drive members back to a critical
state in which the array is being rebuilt.
• Queued to Initialize - This icon is displayed on the drive
members whose array is to be initialized and is placed in a
queue for the process to be started and completed.
• Expanding - This icon is displayed on the drive members whose
array is expanding.
• Verifying - This icon is displayed on the drive members whose
array’s parity data is being verified.
• Unsupported - This icon is displayed when a drive does not
match the other drives for the array.
Enclosure Component Icons The following icons appear on the Main screen in the Enclosure
section. They provide an instant view of the operating status of the
enclosure components, and clicking the icons will open the Controller
Information window.
