Compaq Infortrend manual Detect, Clone+Replace Function

original role – it will become a spare drive again and start rebuilding the failed drive.

5. The “Detect, Clone+Replace” Function:

5a. In \View and Edit Configuration Parameters\Drive-side SCSI Parameters\Drive Predictable Failure Mode <SMART>, choose “Detect, Clone+Replace.”

5b. Make sure you have at least one spare drive to the logical drive. (Either Local Spare Drive or Global Spare Drive)

5c. When a drive (a logical drive member) detects the predictable drive failure, the controller will “clone” the drive with a spare drive. After the “clone” process is finished, it will replace the source drive immediately. The source drive will be stated as a used drive.

If you want to see the progress of cloning, press [ESC] to clear the notification message and see the status bar.

The source drive’s status will be defined as an “Used drive” and will be immediately replaced and pulled off-line. This drive should be replaced with a new one as soon as possible.
