Rebuilding a RAID 5 disk array
Escalade ATA RAID Controllers allow you to create fault tolerant RAID 5
disk arrays. These disk arrays achieve fault tolerance by using a simple
(exclusive OR) function to generate the parity data that is distributed on all
drives. If one of the drives is removed, unplugged or fails on read or write
requests, the array is marked as
DEGRADED and the drive is marked as Not
In Use or is not displayed if no longer available (see Figure 20). When run-
ning in Degraded mode, the missing data is reconstructed from all non-
degraded drives.
Figure 20. Degraded RAID 5 Array Drive When Not in Use
As in the case of RAID 1 and 10 arrays RAID 5 arrays allow you to read and
write data from a degraded disk array, but the array will not be fault tolerant
until it is rebuilt using the Rebuild feature. (Refer to the
3ware Disk Array
Configuration Utility or 3DM Disk Management Utility chapters for more
information.)
Rebuilding a mirrored or RAID 5 array with no hot spare
1 Reboot the system and enter the Disk Array Configuration Utility .
2 If your mirrored or RAID 5 array has a Not in Use member drive, the
drive may still be usable. Try rebuilding with the Not in Use drive intact.
Simply select the array and then the Rebuild button.
The Rebuild Disk Array screen appears, showing
the “Continue on
source error” field. This field lets you specify whether or not you
want rebuilding to continue if it encounters a source error. The
default is “disable.”
