5Click the Add New Slot button.

The page refreshes and the new schedule is added to the list.

Note: The scheduled tasks can be added in any order. For example a new task scheduled for Tuesday (slot-2) will preempt the task originally scheduled for Wednesday (slot-1).

Selecting Self-tests to be Performed

Two self-tests can be set: one to check whether UDMA Mode can be upgraded, and another to check whether SMART thresholds have been exceeded. (For more information about these self-tests, see the 3DM Reference section, “Scheduling page” on page 97.)

Initially, these tests are set to run every 24 hours. You can change the schedule for when they are run, and you can disable the tests, if you prefer not have to have them performed.

Note: These tasks will only be run during scheduled times if they are checked in the Schedule Self-testssection of the Scheduling page. If neither of the tasks is checked, self-tests will never run, even if you have scheduled time slots set.

To select self-tests to be performed

1Choose Management > Schedule from the menu bar.

The Scheduling page appears, showing the schedule for Rebuild Tasks.

2Select Self-test Tasks from the drop-down list at the top of the page.
