Restrictions and Limitations
The following restrictions and limitations apply to the Replace Member
operation:
•The
Replace Member
functions are restricted to one per array for RAID 0,
RAID 1, and RAID 5, and two per array for RAID 6.
•The
Replace Member
function and rebuild cannot run simultaneously on
a RAID 6 virtual disk. The rebuild operation has a higher priority, and the
Replace Member
operation is aborted if a rebuild begins.
•The
Replace Member
function cannot replace a SED with a non-SED
if the virtual disk is secured.
Stopping Background Initialization
Background initialization (BGI) is the automated operation in which parity is
created and written. BGI does not run on RAID 0 virtual disks. Under certain
conditions, the BIOS Configuration Utility (<Ctrl><R>) displays a
message if you want to stop BGI in progress. An alert message is displayed if
BGI is in progress and you start any of the following actions:
• A Full Initialization on the virtual disk
• A Fast Initialization on the virtual disk
• A Consistency Check on the virtual disk
The following alert message is displayed:
The virtual disk is undergoing a background
initialization process. Would you like to stop the
operation and proceed with the <full
initialization/quick initialization/consistency
check> instead?
Click Yes to stop the BGI and start the requested operation or No to allow
BGI to continue.
