Adaptec SCSI RAID Software Reference Guide container restore RAID5 To restore a RAID-5 set, use the container restore RAID5 command. Typically, you use this command to restore a RAID-5 set that contains one or more dead partitions. This command does not always succeed and, in fact, you should use this command if all other measures to restore the RAID-5 set fail. One situation where the command might prove useful is for those situations where you may have inadvertently pulled a drive and then almost immediately put it back. The act of pulling the drive may cause some dead partitions to appear. You can then restore the RAID-5 set by using this command. Syntax container restore RAID5 {container} Parameters {container} Specifies the ID number (0 to 63) of the array (a RAID-5 set) to restore. Examples Before restoring a RAID-5 set, use the container list command to display information about the RAID-5 set. If a partition is dead, the ":" (colon) in the Partition Offset:Size column changes to a "!" (exclamation point).
