Identifying a Failed or Failing Component, Recovering from a Disk Drive Failure

Page 148 highlights

Chapter 16: Solving Problems ● 147 Identifying a Failed or Failing Component When your are notified of a Warning- or Error-level event, use Adaptec Storage Manager's rapid fault isolation feature to quickly identify the source of the problem. For instance, in the example below a disk drive has failed. To find the failed disk drive, follow the yellow Error icons: Error is on the local system... ...on Controller 1... ...and both the failed disk drive (marked with red X) and hot spare (with yellow +) are affected. Recovering from a Disk Drive Failure When a disk drive fails for any reason, it is represented in Adaptec Storage Manager with a red X, as shown at right. This section explains how to recover when a disk drive fails: ● If the logical drive was protected by a hot spare (see page 148). ● If the logical drive was not protected by a hot spare (see page 149). ● If there is a disk drive failure in more than one logical drive simultaneously (see page 149). ● If it is a RAID 0 logical drive (see page 149). ● If multiple disk drives fail within the same logical drive (see page 150).

Identifying a Failed or Failing Component
When your are notified of a Warning- or Error-level event, use Adaptec
Storage Manager’s rapid fault isolation feature to quickly identify the
source of the problem.
For instance, in the example below a disk drive has failed. To find the
failed disk drive, follow the yellow Error icons:
Recovering from a Disk Drive Failure
When a disk drive fails for any reason, it is represented in
Adaptec Storage Manager with a red X, as shown at right.
This section explains how to recover when a disk drive fails:
If the logical drive was protected by a hot spare (see
page 148
).
If the logical drive was
not
protected by a hot spare (see
page 149
).
If there is a disk drive failure in more than one logical drive
simultaneously (see
page 149
).
If it is a RAID 0 logical drive (see
page 149
).
If multiple disk drives fail within the same logical drive (see
page 150
).
Error is on the local system...
...on Controller 1...
...and both the failed disk drive (marked with red X)
and hot spare (with yellow +) are affected.
