Parity Check
This selection is used to check the parity of the system drives on the
controller that are part of a redundant array. A parity check may take from a
few minutes to up to an hour, depending on the array size.
To perform a parity check, do the following:
1. Select Parity Check from the Main Selection menu. After this option is
selected, a RAID Parity Check window is displayed that shows all the
system drives present on the controller.
2. Use the arrow keys to select a system drive whose parity is to be
checked.
3. Press <Enter> to start the parity check. A message “Illegal choice” is
displayed if a non-redundant system drive is selected.
Rebuild Rate
This selection controls the amount of background activity that the controller
allocates to the Rebuild operation. The lowest priority setting is 0 (zero) and
the highest priority setting is 50 (default).
Use the Left or Right arrow keys to change the Rebuild Rate number and
press <Enter> to set the rate or <Esc> to exit the selection with no changes.
System Drive Mapping
This selection shows how the physical drives are mapped to system drives.
Drives are identified by SCSI Channel ID and SCSI Device ID. Use the Up/
Down arrow keys to move the cursor block through the list of configured
system drives.
System Drive Status
This selection shows the status of configured system drives by SCSI Channel
ID number, as well as information on the size (in Mbytes), RAID level,
controller cache write policy, and operational state (Online, Dead, Standby).
