Unlock drives

Locked drives are drives that for one reason or another have stopped being
recognized by the controller.

Follow the steps below to select a drive to unlock or change the ID.

Locked drives prevent the accidental loss of user data when disk drives are installed
one at a time, or a RAID member is accidentally removed while the system is
powered-on. The meta-data and user data on the locked drives are preserved for
online/offline recovery. If users don’t need the data of the locked drive any longer,
the locked drive can be changed into a spare drive by the command of Unlock
Drive.

Step 1

: Select the drive with the

icon. It will change to the

icon.

Step 2

: Check

the

Confirm

box and then

Unlock Drive

.

During rebuilding the following screen will be displayed.
