Compaq Infortrend manual Perpetual Clone

The cloning process will be indicated by a status bar.

You may also quit the status bar by pressing [ESC] to return to the table of the connected drives. Select the drive indicated as “CLONING” by pressing [ENTER].

Select “clone Failing drive” again to view the current status. You may identify the source drive and choose to “view clone progress,” or “abort clone” if you happen to have selected the wrong drive.

When the process is completed, users will be notified by the following message.

Perpetual Clone:

The standby spare will clone the source drive, member drive with predicted errors or any selected drive, without substituting it. The status of the spare drive will be displayed as “clone drive” after the cloning process. The source drive will remain a member of the logical drive.

In “View and Edit SCSI drives,” locate the member drive with predicted errors. Select “clone Failing drive,” and choose “Perpetual Clone.”

The controller will automatically start the cloning process using the existing “stand-by” (local/global spare drive) to clone the source drive (the target member drive).
