Options BGI Rate CC Rate Recon. Rate Patrol Rate Cache Flush Interval Spinup Delay Spinup Drive Descriptions Use this option to select the amount of system resources dedicated to background initialization of virtual drives connected to the selected controller. The range of background initialization (BGI) rate is between 0 and 100 percent. Use this option to select the amount of system resources dedicated to consistency checks of virtual drives connected to the selected controller. The range of Consistency Check (CC) rate is between 0 and 100 percent. Use this option to select the amount of system resources dedicated to reconstruction of drives connected to the selected controller. The range of Recon rate is between 0 and100 percent. Use this option to select the rate for patrol reads for drives connected to the selected controller. The patrol read rate is the percentage of system resources dedicated to running a patrol read. The range of patrol read is between 0 to 100 percent. Use this option to control the interval at which the contents of the onboard data cache are flushed. The range of Cache Flush Interval is between 0 to100 seconds. Use this option to control the interval (in seconds) between spinup of drives connected to this controller. The delay prevents a drain on the system's power supply that would occur if all drives spun up at the same time. The range of Spinup Delay is between 0 to 255 seconds. Use this option to control the interval at which the contents of the onboard data cache are flushed. The range of Spinup Drive is between 0 to 255 seconds. Maintain PD Fail History Use this option to maintain the history of all drive failures. Enable Controller BIOS Use this option to enable or disable the BIOS for the selected controller. If the boot device is on the selected controller, the BIOS must be enabled. Otherwise, the BIOS should be disabled, or you might be unable to use a boot device elsewhere. Enable Stop CC Use this option to stop a consistency check when the controller BIOS on Error encounters an error. Auto Enhanced Import Use this option to import automatically at boot time. 2-18 Chapter 2: RAID Configuration

Chapter 2: RAID Configuration
Options
Descriptions
BGI Rate
Use this option to select the amount of system resources dedicated
to background initialization of virtual drives connected to the selected
controller. The range of background initialization (BGI) rate is between
0 and 100 percent.
CC Rate
Use this option to select the amount of system resources dedicated
to consistency checks of virtual drives connected to the selected
controller. The range of Consistency Check (CC) rate is between 0 and
100 percent.
Recon. Rate
Use this option to select the amount of system resources dedicated
to reconstruction of drives connected to the selected controller. The
range of Recon rate is between 0 and100 percent.
Patrol Rate
Use this option to select the rate for patrol reads for drives connected
to the selected controller. The patrol read rate is the percentage of
system resources dedicated to running a patrol read. The range of
patrol read is between 0 to 100 percent.
Cache Flush
Interval
Use this option to control the interval at which the contents of the
onboard data cache are flushed. The range of Cache Flush Interval is
between 0 to100 seconds.
Spinup Delay
Use this option to control the interval (in seconds) between spinup of
drives connected to this controller.
The delay prevents a drain on the system’s power supply that would
occur if all drives spun up at the same time. The range of Spinup Delay
is between 0 to 255 seconds.
Spinup Drive
Use this option to control the interval at which the contents of the
onboard data cache are flushed. The range of Spinup Drive is between
0 to 255 seconds.
Maintain PD Fail
History
Use this option to maintain the history of all drive failures.
Enable
Controller BIOS
Use this option to enable or disable the BIOS for the selected
controller.
If the boot device is on the selected controller, the BIOS must be
enabled. Otherwise, the BIOS should be disabled, or you might be
unable to use a boot device elsewhere.
Enable Stop CC
on Error
Use this option to stop a consistency check when the controller BIOS
encounters an error.
Auto Enhanced
Import
Use this option to import automatically at boot time.
