 Rebuilding 

Arrays

Notes:

Rebuilding applies to Fault Tolerant arrays (RAID 1) only.

If an array Build process (or initialization) is interrupted or critical with one member 

missing, you must perform a Rebuild to optimized its functionality.  For a critical 

array Rebuild operation, the optimal drive is the source drive.

If no spare array exists and a hard disk drive fails, you need to create a spare 

before you can rebuild an array.

To rebuild an array:

1. From the Main Menu, select Manage Arrays (as shown in the screen below). 

From the list of arrays, select the array you want to rebuild.

2. Press Ctrl+R to rebuild.
