Figure 42. ServeRAID Adapter Main Menu
Your choices from the main menu are:
2 View Configuration
This option lets you see how your system is presently configured. The
physical drives will have the following states:
CDR device is a CD-ROM
DDD the drive has become defunct; it does not respond to commands
DHS the drive is defined as a hot-spare, but is now defunct
EMP the drive was present but has now been removed and the slot is
empty
HSP the drive is a hot-spare for use when a similar drive fails
INI the device is the ServeRAID controller itself (initiator)
ONL the drive is online and part of an array (the array letter A,B etc is
listed to the right of the status in the View Configuration panel)
PRC Reserved. In use by a component of the system (eg the backplane)
RBL the drive is being rebuilt
RDY the drive is available but not in use
SBY the drive has been spun down by the adapter and is in standby mode
SHS the drive is a standby hot-spare
TAP the device is a tape drive
The status of the logical drives can be:
CRT the logical drive is in a critical state, although it is still functioning
despite the failure of one of its physical devices
FRE the logical drive is not defined
LDM the logical drive is undergoing a RAID level change using Logical
Drive Migration functions
OKY The logical drive is functioning correctly
OFL The logical drive is offline and not accessible. This occurs when
more physical drives fail that the RAID level can cope with (that is, 1
for RAID-0 and 2 for RAID-1 and RAID-5)
SYS Reserved state
