Critical – This condition arises as the result of a physical drive failure. A Critical logical drive will still function and your data is still available. However, the logical drive has lost redundancy (fault tolerance). You must determine the cause of the problem and correct it.

Offline – This condition arises as the result of a second physical drive failure. An Offline logical drive is not accessable but some or all of your data may remain intact. You must determine the cause of the problem and correct it.

Disk Array Settings

2.Click on the VTrak icon.

3.Click on the Disk Arrays icon.

4.Click on the Disk Array icon.

5.Click the Settings tab.

6.Enter an alias in the field.

7.Check the box to enable Auto Rebuild.

8.Check the box to enable SMART check on the hard disk drives.

9.Check the box to enable the hard disk drives' write caches.

10.Check the box to set the VTrak's cache to Write Back operation.

11.Uncheck to set the cache to Write Through operation.

12.From the popup menu, select High or Low for Rebuild priority.

13.From the popup menu, select High or Low for Synchronize priority.

14.From the popup menu, select High or Low for Migration priority.
