Adaptec CI/O Management Software User's Guide Adaptec CI/O Management Software allows you to perform a number of operations on arrays, spares, and stand-alone disks. Some of the operations are performed immediately; others can be scheduled for a later time, or scheduled to occur periodically at stated intervals (See Chapter 8, Scheduling and Monitoring Array Operations). Performing Array Operations To perform array, spare, and disk operations 1 Click to open the Storage Configuration window. 2 Right-click the icon that represents the array , spare , or SCSI disk you want to work on. The drop-down menu lists the operations that can be performed on the selected device. 3 Select the operation you want to perform. See the appropriate section of this chapter for a description of these operations. Reconstructing an Array If a suitable spare disk is available when an array disk fails, the array is automatically reconstructed, and you do not need to use the Reconstruct operation. However, if a disk in an array goes down for some reason other than physical failure, and no suitable spare is available to replace it, you receive an event notification that the array is Critical. You can then reconstruct the array with the Reconstruct command. An array member can change to a Down status for several reasons: s physical failure s the user downs the array member with the Down a Drive command s the array member is removed by mistake s the cable to the array member is accidentally disconnected 7-2
