The rebuild is stopped, and the CU stores the percentage of the
rebuild already completed. If AutoResume is enabled, the rebuild
resumes where it left off when you restart it, instead of starting over
from 0 percent.

Continue: The rebuild continues normally.

Abort: The rebuild is completely aborted and the disk drive remains
in the FAIL state. If you restart the rebuild, it begins at 0 percent.

drive will be reflected in the list of drives that appears in the configuration
utility.
