Removing RAID configuration data

If you move single drives between devices without erasing the drives, you may want to clean stale RAID configuration data from the drives, permanently removing the drive from the RAID group. Drives must belong to a RAID group now or have once belonged to a RAID group and are labeled Replaced after system scans.

CAUTION

Continue with extreme caution: data is lost on the drive when it is cleaned of RAID information.

1If you are not already in the ExpressNAV Storage Manager, type the IP address of your appliance in a standard browser. On the splash screen, click Enter Here. In the box provided, type in your user name and password. Click OK.

2Click the Diagnostics button on the Menu Items list on the left hand side of the ExpressNAV Storage Manager.

3Click in the Clean RAID Configuration data radio button from the Select User Process box.

4Click Next.

5Click on the drives you wish to update; the drives are highlighted.

6Click on Commit.

7A warning box appears. In the warning box, verify that you want to complete the configuration by clicking on Yes. Clicking on No ends the procedure without making a change.

8When the process is complete, the Health and Status Monitor screen appears.

Advanced CLI page

Changes to the FastStream may be made using the Advanced page.

CAUTION

Do not use this page unless you are directed to by an ATTO technician. Changing parameters may cause loss of data and/or disruption to performance and reliability of the FastStream.

Note

The ExpressNAV Storage Manager is the preferred method to manage the FastStream.

1If you are not already in the ExpressNAV Storage Manager, type the IP address of your appliance in a standard browser. On the splash screen, click Enter Here. In the box provided,

type in your user name and password, and click OK.

2In the left-hand menu, click on the Advanced menu item.

3The Advanced CLI Configuration page appears. Wait for the Ready prompt, then type in the CLI command in the text box provided. Refer to CLI Provides an ASCII-based Interface on page i of the Appendix.

4Click the Submit button: this is equivalent to typing in the CLI command into a telnet or serial port CLI session.

A text field beneath the box lists the most recent commands issued to the FastStream through this page. If you enter an incorrect parameter, the CLI help text is displayed, showing the parameters available. An asterisk next to the Ready prompt indicates you must type SaveConfiguration restart in the text box for changes to take effect.
