Chapter 5 – Monitoring Functions
5.1 Viewing system health and status
The RamSan makes it possible to view system health variables in a variety of ways. This allows you to easily determine that the system is in good health and, under rare circumstances, determine that a failure is imminent or has occurred.
5.1.1Front panel monitoring
When the menu on the front panel is not in use, the display monitors various aspects of the system. The display presents the following information:
Restore/Synchronize Progress
During any synchronization or data restore, the front panel cycles between the operation progress and estimated time remaining until completion.
The system displays
“Restoring Data” when restoring data from disk and displays “Initializing” when starting from a volatile state.
If the system is rebuilding the disk array, the system displays “Array Rebuilding.” If the system is rebuilding a single disk, the front panel displays “Disk # Rebuild” indicating the disk number.
