Managing Logical Drives
Logical drives are made from disk arrays. In the Tree, you can see a graphic
representation of the logical drives that belong to each array. You can see a
summary of all logical drives in the subsystem under Logical Drive Summary.
Logical drive management includes the following functions:
•
Viewing Information for All Logical Drives (page 105)
•
Viewing Logical Drive Information (page 106)
•
Viewing Logical Drive Statistics (page 107)
•
Making Logical Drive Settings (page 107)
•
Initializing a Logical Drive (page 107)
•
Running Redundancy Check (page 108)
•
Viewing the Logical Drive Check Table (page 109)
•
Making Logical Drive LUN Settings (page 110)
Viewing Information for All Logical Drives
To view information about all logical drives in a disk array:
1.
Click the Subsystem
icon in Tree View.
2.
Click the Disk Arrays
icon.
3.
Click the Disk Array

4.
Click the Logical Drives

Logical Drive Status
•
OK – This is the normal state of a logical drive. When a logical drive is
Functional, it is ready for immediate use. For RAID Levels other than RAID 0
(Striping), the logical drive has full redundancy.
•
Synchronizing – This condition is temporary. Synchronizing is a
maintenance function that verifies the integrity of data and redundancy in the
logical drive. When a logical drive is Synchronizing, it will function and your
data is available. However, access will be slower due to the synchronizing
operation.
•
Rebuilding – This condition is temporary. When a physical drive has been
replaced, the logical drive automatically begins rebuilding in order to restore
redundancy (fault tolerance). When a logical drive is rebuilding, it will
function and your data is available. However, access will be slower due to
the rebuilding operation.
•
Critical – This condition arises as the result of a physical drive failure. A
degraded logical drive will still function and your data is still available.
