Ciprico 4105 Series user manual Mode Set Button

MediaVault 4105 User Manual Operations

Mode Set Button

This switch performs several functions:

•During power up, it acts as a Mode Set switch.

•During normal operation it is used to Silence Alarms and to start the rebuild process for a replaced drive.

During the first 20 seconds of power up, the switch acts as a Mode Set switch and is used in conjunction with the Mode Selection option. See the “Mode Change Procedure” on page 5-12.

During normal operation, and only when the MV 4105 is in the RAID 3 modes, this switch is used to silence alarms and to start a drive rebuild process. When a defective drive has been replaced, this rebuild process brings the MV 4105 back up to its fully protected mode. See the “Audible Alarm” section on page 5-14, and the “Drive Replacement” section in Chapter 8, Maintenance, for additional information.
