Rebuilding Arrays

*Note 1: Rebuilding applies to Fault Tolerant array (RAID 1) only.

If an array Build process (or initialization) is interrupted or critical with one member missing, you must perform a Rebuild to optimized its function- ality. For a critical array Rebuild operation, the optimal drive is the source drive.

*Note 2: If no spare array exists and a hard disk drive fails, you need to create a spare before you can rebuild an array.

To Rebuild an array:

1 From the Main Menu, select Manage Arrays (as shown in the screen below). From the List of Arrays, select the array you want to Rebuild.

2 Press Ctrl+R to Rebuild.
