Verifying consistency on the drives
This optional consistency check on the logical drive of the RAID system
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
is 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.
