Synchronizing the array

Synchronizing the array allows the utility to resynchronize data on the mirrored disk in the array. This procedure is seldom required because data synchronization is automatically done during normal operation.

To synchronize the array:

1.Follow steps 1–3 of the section Viewing volume properties and step 2 of the section Managing hot spares.

2.From the Manage Array screen select Synchronize Array, then press <Enter>.
