RAID controller.)

/cx show verifymode

The /cx show verifymode shows the current rebuild mode setting of the
specified controller. The verify mode has two settings: Adaptive and Low
latency
.

Verify mode works with the verify task rate (see “/cx show verifyrate” on
page 52
).

The Adaptive setting is the default verify mode. It allows the firmware to
adjust the interaction of verify tasks with host I/Os to maximize the speed of
both host I/O and verify tasks. The Low Latency setting minimizes latency
(delay) in reading data from a RAID unit by slowing down the verify task
process. For some applications, such as video server applications and audio
applications, it is important to minimize the latency of read commands, so that
users do not perceive a lag when viewing video or listening to audio.
