Figure 34 – Web Monitor RAID Offline
You can access the Web monitor for more specific information on
which RAID is offline. An example screenshot is shown in Figure 34.
If the RAID has multiple module failures, it will be taken offline. There
will be a good chance your RAID will lose its data. Please contact
Texas Memory Systems to diagnose and repair your system (see
Section 4.15.1 – Contacting Texas Memory Systems).
Once the RAID has been repaired (probably by replacing failed Flash
modules), it will have to be re-initialized.
W ARNING
R E - INITIALIZING THE RAID WILL DESTROY ALL DATA ON THAT PARTICULAR RAID.
Right-mouse click on the offline RAID icon shown in the Web monitor
and select “Initialize” to start the process, or you could just left-
mouse click the green plus sign in the button bar. It will take roughly
20 minutes to finalize the initialization. The RAID will not be usable
while it is being initialized.
5.4 Fans
The system has two fan trays, one behind the Flash modules containing
eight smaller fans, and one in front of the RAM boards containing four
larger fans. These fans cool components in the system. Internal sensors
report the fan spin speed. If the fan-spin speed falls out of specification,
warnings are reported. If they degrade and are unusable, errors are
reported.
