Rebuilding a Disk Array

When you rebuild a disk array, you are actually rebuilding the data on a

replacement physical drive.

Rebuilding Automatically

Normally, a disk array would rebuild itself using a hot disk drive, after going

Critical. However, if the Auto Rebuild function is disabled or no spare drives are

available, you must initiate the procedure.

To enable Auto Rebuild, see “Making Background Activity Settings” on page 71.

To create a spare drive, see “Creating a Spare Drive” on page 176.

For more information, see “Hot Spare Drive(s)” on page 350.

Rebuilding Manually

If a physical drive has failed, identify and replace the drive, then rebuild the disk

array as described below:

1. Click the Subsystem icon in Tree View.

1 2 ... 178 179 180 181 182 183 184 185 186 187 188 ... 461 462
