2.3 Drive Failure Prediction Function (SMART Monitoring)
The hard drives in this equipment have the Self-Monitoring, Analysis and Reporting
Technology (SMART) function, which constantly monitors the condition of the drives and
anticipates a failure before the failure manifests itself. The drive failure prediction function
notifies in the following methods when there is a possibility that failure may occur in a drive
in near future.
(1) Hardware status window
(2) Event notification
(3) Popup notification
(4) Outputs on the status display digital LEDs
(5) Remote notification
(6) The hfbDiskStat functions in the RAS library
For details, see “CHAPTER 4 CHECKING THE HARDWARE STATUS”.
This function can be enabled or disabled in the RAS Setup window. If this function is
disabled, notification using the methods above is disabled. For details, see “3.1.3 Using the
RAS Setup window”.
NOTICE
When a failure of a drive is anticipated, back up the data immediately and replace
the drive. For information about how to replace a drive, see “
HF-BT1000
INSTRUCTION MANUAL
(manual number BT-62-0002)”.
NOTE
• It is not possible for the Drive Failure Prediction Function to anticipate all
failures. Therefore, a drive may fail before the Drive Failure Prediction
Function anticipates any failures.
• This function can monitor only the drives on the drive bay1 and 2 recognized
at the OS startup. If you connect a new drive or replace a drive with a new
drive, for example, for maintenance, it may take a long time to recognize the
new drive at the first startup after the new drive is connected, and the drive
may not be recognized as a drive to be monitored. If this situation happens,
restart this equipment.
