checking and correcting data and parity. Unlike a Rebuild, Synchronization is a
maintenance operation.
Synchronization applies to RAID 1 and 0+1. It takes place when an array is first
created and then, optionally, on a regularly scheduled basis to maintain content
integrity.
Scheduled Synchronization
Schedule a time for synchronization when the RAID is least busy reading and
writing data. The early morning hours are often a convenient time.
To enable scheduled synchronization:
1. In Tree View, select the RAID Machine
icon. In Information View, scroll
down to the bottom.
2. Check the Enabled box.
3. Click on the radio button beside the time interval (by day, week or month)
you want.
4. Based on the time interval you selected, enter the clock time, day of the
week or day of the month for the synchronization process to begin.
5. When you are done, click the Change button.
The Synchronization Schedule is set. If the Schedule is disabled, it will remember
its current settings.
