Once the test has completed, if there were errors, make any changes or adjustments to your IP, DNS,
Gateway, or Subnet Mask as needed to ensure proper connectivity. Otherwise, upon successful
completion, the network tests are done.

bruAPP RAID Configuration
The bruAPP RAID Configuration menu allows you to set the RAID Administrator email address, the
person notified by the bruAPP for all RAID notifications (online, offline, disk failures, etc), and the ability
to manually rebuild the bruAPP RAID array to the default RAID level as requested when the bruAPP
was ordered.
Customers who ordered the bruAPP with RAID 5 and a hot spare, the unit will rebuild the RAID using
level 5 with a hot spare. The same applies for RAID 0 (“stripe”), RAID 5, RAID 6, and RAID 6 with hot
spare.
At this time, is it not possible to specify the RAID level that is used on the bruAPP by using the “Rebuild
RAID” option.
RAID Administration
The RAID Administrator option allows for a single email address to be used for bruAPP RAID
notifications sent out by the bruAPP/OS.
In addition to the RAID Administrator email address, notifications are displayed on the bruAPP Web
Page in the event of a RAID alert. You can visit the bruAPP Web Page by typing in the hostname or IP
address of the bruAPP Backup Appliance into your favorite browser
ʼ
s address bar. If there is an alert, it
will be displayed at the top of the page in a color-coded alert box.
RAID Notifications, priority levels, and descriptions can be found in figure 8.12.
