Rebuilding Arrays

*Note 1: Rebuilding applies to Fault Tolerant array (RAID 1) only.

If an array Build process (or initialization) is interrupted or critical with one
member missing, you must perform a Rebuild to get the array to Optimal
status. For a critical array Rebuild operation, the optimal drive is the source
drive.

*Note 2: If no spare array exists and a hard disk drive fails, you need to

create a spare before you can rebuild an array.

To Rebuild an array:

1 From the Main Menu, select Manage Arrays  (as shown in the screen
below). From the List of Arrays, select the array you want to Rebuild.

2 Press Ctrl+R to Rebuild.
