Fortinet 3.0 MR7 manual Configuring RAID on the FortiAnalyzer-400, FortiAnalyzer-800/800B, Level 1

System Config

The options available here will depend on the RAID level selected. For most RAID levels, you can only add the new hard disk back into the RAID array. If you are running a RAID level with hot spare, you can also add the new hard disk as the hot spare.

	Configuring RAID on the FortiAnalyzer-400 and
	FortiAnalyzer-800/800B
	The FortiAnalyzer-400 and FortiAnalyzer-800/800B have four hot swappable hard
	disks. Hot swapping is available when running the FortiAnalyzer unit with RAID
	level 1 and 5.
	RAID settings can be configured from the Dashboard, in the RAID Monitor widget
	as well as from System > Config > RAID.
	For more information about the different RAID levels, see “RAID levels” on
	page 62.
!	Caution: Back up all data before changing the RAID level. If you change RAID levels, the
	FortiAnalyzer unit reformats the hard disks to support the new setting, which may result in
	data loss.

Configuring RAID on the FortiAnalyzer-2000/2000A and FortiAnalyzer-4000/4000A

The FortiAnalyzer-2000/2000A has six hard disks and the FortiAnalyzer-4000/4000A has 12 hard disks. For both units, the disks are hot-swappable. This provides additional RAID options for greater flexibility for data recovery, should a hard disk fail.
