Promise Technology FAST TRAK100TM User may then decide what to do about the errors detected

FastTrak100 User Manual

Fix: in most cases, FastTrak100 automatically can correct errors. The method of correction varies depending on the type of error.

Ignore: FastTrak100 will log the event error and continue the rebuild or synchronization process. Use this setting if you want to detect the presence of errors, but do not want to fix these errors at the time. The

user may then decide what to do about the error(s) detected.

WARNING: This may result in mismatched drives under RAID 1 or 0+1.

Interactive: By checking this option, a selection window will appear each time an error is detected asking the user whether they want to Abort, Fix, or Ignore the error (see Troubleshooting section).

Dismiss Error Dialogs designates the length of time (in seconds) that a Message box or Error Dialog box appears on screen.

Scheduling Array Synchronization

This section of the Options Window allows a user to schedule when and how often FastTrak100 will perform synchronization maintenance of a mirrored array.

Disable checkbox is checked (the default) to turn off automated scheduling of synchronization. When unchecked, the Scheduling section will be highlighted (see above).

On Errors section offers four radio button choices for the user to select what procedure they would like to perform if an Error is detected during a scheduled Synchronization. There are three types of errors that FastTrak100 detects -- a data mismatch between the primary and secondary drive, a physical media error on source or target drive, or a total disk failure. The options for handling Errors are as follows:

Abort: stops the Synchronization process if an error is encountered.

Fix: in most cases, FastTrak100 automatically can correct errors. The method of correction varies depending on the type of error (see Appendix under Error Correction Methodology).
