2.6 Configurations and Log Files
From the main NumaRAID menu Configurations and Log Files displays diagnostic infor-‐
mation, creates logs for technical support, and transfers and archives config files. The
Config file stores information about the state of a RAID set.
‘Save Current Config As’ uses a Linux path with a file name to create a back up of the cur-‐
rent RAID config. The config file stores information about the RAID, LUNs, ports, files,
sensors, slots, licenses, parameters, and drives. It is written to both the SATADOM boot
disk and the drives in the RAID. ‘Reload Configuration’ gives you the ability to reload the
current config or load a config from anywhere on the disk. Record Current Configuration
to All Drives writes an updated version of the config file to the drives in the RAID, and Re-‐
cover Configuration from Drive to File will write a config file for a given drive individually.
Caution:
Reloading the current config will temporarily disconnect all clients.
Underneath the Configurations options there is the Trace File Actions table. Trace is a
record of logged information about QOS 8-‐Bay’s system used for monitoring, trouble-‐
shooting, and support.
‘Display Trace’ will use the Type and Number of Entries filters to output a list of the Trace
details logged by the system. You can select to display only Commands or select All to
display all information. The Number of Entries column is used to choose between the
First 25 or Last 25 Entries to display. Capture Trace to TraceFile will record these entries
