2.2.6 Managing Configurations This section includes information about maintaining and managing storage configurations. Running a Consistency Check You should periodically run a consistency check on fault-tolerant virtual drives. A consistency check verifies that the redundancy data is correct and available for RAID 1, RAID 5, and RAID 10 arrays. To do this, follow these steps: 1. On the main WebBIOS CU screen, select a virtual drive. 2. When the Virtual Drive screen appears, select CC in the lower left panel, and click Go. 3. Click Yes to continue. The consistency check begins. If the WebBIOS CU finds a difference between the data and the parity value on the redundant drive group, it assumes that the data is accurate and automatically corrects the parity value. Be sure to back up the data before running a consistency check if you think the data may be corrupted. Deleting a Virtual Drive You can delete any virtual drive on the controller if you want to reuse that space for a new virtual drive. The WebBIOS CU provides a list of configurable drive groups where there is a space to configure. If multiple virtual drives are defined on a single drive group, you can delete a virtual drive without deleting the whole drive group. Back up any data that you want to keep before you delete the virtual drive. To delete a virtual drive, follow these steps: 1. On the main WebBIOS CU screen, select a virtual drive. 2. When the Virtual Drive screen appears, select Delete in the bottom panel under the heading Operations, and click Go. 3. When the message appears, confirm that you want to delete the virtual drive.
