Using FastBuild™ Configuration Utility
The FastBuild
TM
Configuration Utility offers several menu choices to create and manage the
drive array on the Promise FastTrak TX2000 adapter. For purposes of this manual, it is
assumed you have already created an array in the previous chapter and now wish to make a
change to the array or view other options.
Viewing FastTrak TX2000 BIOS Screen
When you boot your system with the FastTrak TX2000 card and drives installed, the Promise
onboard BIOS will detect the drives attached and show the following screen.

version and status of the array.

Press <Ctrl-F> to enter FastBuild (tm) Utility....
The array status consists of three possible conditions:
Functional, Critical, Offline
.
Functional
- The array is operational.
Critical
- A mirrored array contains a drive that has failed or disconnected. The remaining drive
member in the array is functional. However, the array has temporarily lost its ability to provide
fault tolerance. The user should identify the failed drive through the FastBuild
Setup utility,
and then replace the problem drive.
Offline
- A mirrored array has 2 drives that have failed/disconnected or a striped array has 1
drive that has failed or been disconnected. When the array condition is “offline,” the user must
replace the failed drive(s), and then restore data from a backup source.
