8. SIMULATING THE HARDWARE STATUS
8.1.3 Precautions when you use the Simulation Tool window
(1) When the new status to be simulated is finalized
From when you select a new status to be simulated from a popup menu on the
Simulation Tool window until when you click Apply, the new status to be simulated
is not finalized and you can change it. The actual status used for simulation is the one
shown in "Setting" in the Simulation Tool window when you click Apply. When the
"set value" is not set (
(2) Simulating the status of the drives in the RAID
In the case of B and T Model, the RAID status is determined by the simulation of the
condition of the drives used in the RAID. In some cases, if you select a new status to
be simulated for both drives, the condition of the first drive you selected may change
depending on the condition of the second drive you selected. The following example
illustrates the case where "Offline" is selected for both drives.
1. Select Offline for drive bay1. Then, select Offline for drive bay2. (If you select
Not Connected instead, the result will be the same.)
2. When Offline is selected for drive bay 2, the condition of drive bay 1 is reset to "--
-" (Not set).
), the state displayed in "status" will be maintained.
