Verifying consistency on the drives
This optional consistency check on the RAID system’s logical drive
ensures that the data on the drives is identical. If any errors are found,
they are corrected automatically. Perform a consistency check
before
you split the RAID system pack. A good data backup on an offline drive
will be important if you need to revert to the CallPilot system from an
unsuccessful upgrade or update. The consistency check can take up to 2
hours to complete.
To perform a consistency check
1 Restart the CallPilot system and press Ctrl+M when prompted, to
enter the RAID setup utility during bootup.
2 From the Management Console, select Check Consistency.
Result: The Logical Drives Configured dialog box displays.
3 Use the arrow key to highlight the first drive to be checked.
4 Press the space key to select the drive.
5 Press F10 to check consistency.
Result: The “Check Consistency?” confirm dialog box appears.
6 Select YES and press Enter.
ATTENTION
As an extra precaution, it is recommended that a full
system backup be performed PRIOR to performing a
RAID-split. For more information on system backups refer
to the CallPilot Manager online help.
