automatically checking a disk drive's health and reporting potential
problems. It allows you to take proactive steps to prevent impend-
ing disk crashes.
3DM Disk Management Utility runs in the background on the
Escalade Storage Switch’s host and allows you to monitor the
switch and rebuild mirrored arrays remotely via a standard web
browser. To remotely access 3DM, you are not required to install
any software on your system but you must have access to the net-
work with the Escalade Storage Switch. 3DM supports hot spare
and hot swap for mirrored arrays. Hot swap allows users to replace
a failed drive in a mirrored array while the system remains up.
Refer to the 3DM Disk Management Utility chapter.
To create, delete or verify arrays, you must use the 3ware Disk
Array Configuration Utility. To check array configuration or sta-
tus, disable write cache, select a hot spare or rebuild a mirrored
array, you can use the 3ware Disk Array Configuration Utility at
BIOS time or 3DM Disk Management Utility in real time. Hot
swap is only available through the 3DM Disk Management Util-
ity.
