Glossary

clear

Foreground initialization of a fault-tolerant array. A clear operation 
zeros all blocks of the array. The array is not accessible until the 
clear task is complete.

concatenation

Joining of physical or logical drives in sequential order.

consistency check command

Command that reads all the blocks of a RAID 1 to determine if the 
blocks are consistent. Any inconsistent blocks are fixed.

D

dead partition

See 

failed

.

dedicated hot spare

Component that can take the place of a failed component only on 
the fault-tolerant array to which it is explicitly assigned.

degraded

A redundant (for example, a RAID 1) array in which one or more 
members have failed. The data is intact but redundancy has been 
compromised. Any further failure would cause the array to fail and 
result in data loss.

disk

Physical disk drive. Randomly accessible, re-writable data storage 
device. Also called hard disk.

disk ID

Unique disk identifier that consists of the channel number, SATA 
ID. For example, (channel:ID:LUN) 1:04:0. See also 

channel

.

drive LED

Disk indicator LED that illuminates during read or write 
operations.
