Other FastBuild Utility Commands
Command options 3-6 on the FastBuild™ Utility main menu are not
required for setting up an array, but they are useful for reconfiguring an
array.
View Array (3): This command allows you to view the drive assignments
of hard disks in an array.
Delete Array (4): This command deletes an array to reconfigure the
system. Deleting an array does not remove information on the hard disks.
If an array is deleted by mistake, recover it immediately by redefining it as
the deleted array.
Rebuild Array (5): This command restores the array and system data
after faults on RAID 1 arrays.
To rebuild and restore data in the array:
1. During the boot-up process, an error message notifies of a system
failure.
2. Press <Ctrl+F> to enter the FastBuild™ Main Menu.
3. Press <3> to View Array and verify the ID of the defunct hard disk.
4. Power off the system and replace the hard disk with an identical model.
5. Reboot and enter the FastBuild™ Main Menu again.
6. Press <5> to Rebuild Array. The malfunctioning array is highlighted.
Press <Enter> to select malfunctioning array.
During the OS installation, the system prompts you to install third-party
SCSI or RAID driver. Refer to section “5.7 Creating a floppy with RAID
driver” for details.
