Update Firmware

The Update Firmware function allows you to update the firmware of your
3ware RAID controller to the latest version. This keeps the firmware
compatible with updates to your operating system and allows you to take
advantage of new features AMCC may have added to your controller’s
functionality. For additional information, see “Updating the Firmware
Through 3DM 2” on page 182
.

Scheduling page

Figure 104. Scheduling Page

The Scheduling page appears when you choose

Management > Scheduling

from the menu bar.

The Scheduling page lets you set up a schedule for when background tasks
(rebuild, migrate, initialize, verify, and self-test) should occur. Background
tasks can have impact on the performance of your system, so you may prefer
to schedule them at times when they will be least disruptive, such as in the
middle of the night or on a weekend. For details about the different
background tasks, see “Background Tasks” on page 158.

Select a type of task you would like to schedule.

You start by selecting the

type of task for which you want to set the schedule from the drop-down list at
the top of the page.

Rebuild/migrate tasks (also applies to initialization)

Verify tasks (also applies to media scans)

Self-tests
