Troubleshooting
Inconsistent naming may occur between the Power-On Self Test (POST) and the
Integrated ATA RAID Configuration Utility. This inconsistency occurs when a
drive has failed in a RAID 1 or RAID 1+0 configuration. The POST message
lists the array as running in a
Degraded
state and the Integrated ATA RAID
Configuration Utility lists it as being in a
Rebuilding
state. If this
inconsistency occurs, the array must be rebuilt.
If you add drives to a configuration, the
Integrated ATA RAID Management
Utility
tray icon (which is seen only under Microsoft operating systems) may
indicate yellow or red, depending on the array condition. The color change
indicates one of the following situations:
— Errors are present on the array.
— Error data from an earlier application of the drive is present, and is
mistakenly being presented as new errors. Right-click on the tray icon and
