Running RAIDBLD
The default RAIDBLD command line is set to do the following when
RAIDBLD runs:
• Use a scan interval of seven (7) seconds [-s 7];
• Scan for failed hot spares only [-S 1]
• Perform automatic rebuilds when failed drives are replaced [-r];
• Perform automatic consistency checks beginning tonight at midnight
[-T 0], every midnight [-t 24], but do not automatically fix consistency
errors [-R 1];
• Log RAIDBLD messages to a specified log file,
[-l [pathname] raidbld.log];
• Do NOT specify a console device to display RAIDBLD messages
(-c parameter not set).
