Disk Array Status
•
OK – The normal state of a disk array. For RAID Levels other than RAID 0
(Striping), the disk array has full redundancy.
•
Synchronizing – When you first create a disk array, the disk array
synchronizes. During that time, your data is available. However, access will
be slower until synchronizing is done.
•
Critical/Degraded – This condition results from a physical drive failure. Your
data is still available. However, the disk array has lost redundancy (fault
tolerance). You must determine the cause of the problem and correct it. See
―Critical & Offline Disk Arrays‖ on page 384.
•
Rebuilding – This condition is temporary. When a physical drive has been
replaced, the disk array automatically begins rebuilding in order to restore
redundancy (fault tolerance). Your data is still available. However, access will
be slower until rebuilding is done.
•
Transport Ready – This function is not supported in the LCD panel. See
―Preparing a Disk Array for Transport‖ on page 162 (ASUS Storage
Management) or page 231 (CLU).
