5.2.4 RAID | FC
In this place you can manage hardware RAID controllers, Fibre Channel or create
disk array using software RAID.
5.2.4.1 H/W Raid
Please note that the RAID controller should be supported by the Open-E
software. If a 3ware controller is installed you can click on RAID in the menu and
the 3ware web base will start automatically.
Function: “3ware administrations”
This function will reset the 3DM password to factory default. (Default 3DM/3DM2
password: 3ware)
It is important to realize the need for time synchronization between an
Open-E NAS/iSCSI box and the client browser you use to access the
configuration panel. Since access to 3ware configuration utility expires
after a certain time period (after period of inactivity). Open-E iSCSI/NAS
must be in the same time zone as client station, if the difference
becomes too large you'll loose authorization token to early or your
authorization will be invalid immediately.
