3.1 Drive Diagnostics
You may determine the performance of drives attached to the FastStream using various displays and tests in
ExpressNAV Storage Manager.
The following instructions assume you have already
set up at least one RAID Group.
The ATTO FastStream collects various metrics to
measure performance for physical drives attached to
the FastStream during normal system operation and
drive initialization and verification.
New performance data is updated every 60 seconds
which impacts performance slightly, even if you
minimize the browser window. Exit the ExpressNAV
Storage Manager completely whenever you need
maximum performance.
Note
Initialize and Verify Drives is Described in
Section 3.0,
Ensure Drive Integrity on page
15.
Preliminary steps

Storage Manager, type the IP address of your

Read-only Drive Test
The Read-Only Drive Test performs a non-
destructive scan over the entire surface of each drive
to identify bad areas of the disk drives and determine
read performance. It may be run while data is passing
through the FastStream.
Running this test may negatively impact performance.
Once the
Read-Only Drive Test has completed,
system operation returns to normal.
To fix errors on disks, use the
Initialize and Verify
Drives process as described in Ensure Drive
Integrity on page 15.
