CHAPTER 6 - RAID Controller
68 SPI-8450-LLVA
WARNING: This may result in mismatched drives under RAID 1.
Interactive: By checking this option, a selection window will appear each time an
error is detected asking the user whether they want to Abort, Fix, or Ignore the error
(see Troubleshooting section).
Dismiss Error Dialogs designates the length of time (in seconds) that a Message
box or Error Dialog box appears on screen.
Scheduling Array Synchronization
This section of the Options Window allows a user to schedule when and how often
FastTrak100-Lite will perform synchronization maintenance of a mirrored array.
Disable checkbox is checked (the default) to turn off automated scheduling of synchronization.
When unchecked, the Scheduling section will be highlighted (see above).
On Errors section offers four radio button choices for the user to select what procedure they
would like to perform if an Error is detected during a scheduled Synchronization. There
are three types of errors that FastTrak100-Lite detects -- a data mismatch between the
primary and secondary drive, a physical media error on source or target drive, or a total
disk failure. The options for handling Errors are as follows:
Abort: stops the Synchronization process if an error is encountered.
Fix: in most cases, FastTrak100-Lite automatically can correct errors. The
method of correction varies depending on the type of error.
Ignore: FastTrak100-Lite will log the event error and continue the
synchronization process. (Warning: this may result in mismatched drives
under RAID 1). Use this setting if you want to detect the presence of errors, but
do not want to fix these errors at the time. The user may then decide what to do
about the error(s) detected.
Interactive: By checking this option, a selection window will appear each
time an error is detected asking the user whether they want to Abort, Fix, or
Ignore the error (see Troubleshooting for more details).
Schedule event drop down box allows scheduling synchronization by minute, by hour, by day,
by week, or by month. If enabled, the default is By Month. This allows synchronization
to take place during an off-hour when the system is either not in use or not at peak
demand.
