The “RESCUE” function can recover the missing RAID set infor- mation. The RAID controller uses the time as the RAID set signa- ture. The RAID set may have different time after the RAID set is recovered. The “SIGANT” function can regenerate the signature for the RAID set.

6.6 Volume Set Functions

A volume set is seen by the host system as a single logical device. It is organized in a RAID level with one or more physical disks. RAID level refers to the level of data performance and protection of a volume set. A volume set capacity can consume all or a portion of the disk capacity available in a RAID set. Multiple volume sets can exist on a group of disks in a RAID set. Additional volume sets created in a specified RAID set will reside on all the physical disks in the raid set. Thus each volume set on the RAID set will have its data spread evenly across all the disks in the RAID set.
