E.4.6 Viewing RAID Volume Properties
Follow these steps to view the properties of RAID volumes.
1. In the Configuration Utility, select an adapter from the Adapter List.
2. Select the RAID Properties option.
The properties of the current volume are displayed.
3. If more than one volume is configured, press Alt+N to view the next array.
4. To manage the current array, press Enter when the Manage Array item is selected.
E.4.7 Synchronizing an Array
Synchronizing an array means that the firmware synchronizes the data on the
secondary disk(s) with the data on the primary disk of the mirror. Follow these steps
to start a synchronization for a RAID 1 volume.
1. Select Synchronize Array.
2. Press Y to start the synchronization, or N to cancel it.
Note – If the server is rebooted before the volume synchronization is completed, the
resync resumes when the server boots.
E.4.8 Activating an Array
An array can become inactive if, for example, it is removed from one controller or
computer and moved to another one. The Activate Array option enables you to
reactivate an inactive array that has been added to a system. This option is only
available when the selected array is currently inactive.
1. Select Activate Array.
2. Press Y to proceed with the activation, or press N to abandon it.
After a pause, the array becomes active.
