4. Select View Verify Status and press <Enter>. The verify menu
displays.
5. Press <Esc> to return to the Verify menu.
D.2.4.2 Stopping the Verification
You can stop the verification process. Normally, you want to let the
verification finish, although stopping it does not cause any damage to
your data. You may want to stop the verification if you want to improve
performance of the EF2800 for another application.
To stop the verification process:
1. From the System Menu, select Array Menu and press <Enter>.
The Select Array screen displays with a list of existing arrays.
2. Select the array you want and press <Enter>. The array menu
displays.
3. Select Verify Function and press <Enter>. The verify menu
displays.
4. Select Abort Verify and press <Enter>. The system confirms that
you want to stop the verification process.
5. Select Yes and press <Enter>.
D.2.5 Reconstructing an Array
.The EF2800 automatically reconstructs redundant arrays (RAID 3,
RAID 4, RAID 5, RAID 50, and mirrored) if an array becomes critical
and a properly sized spare drive is available. An array becomes critical
when one or more member drives fail.
If a reconstruct does not start automatically, it means that no valid
spares are available. To start a reconstruct, replace the failed drive, and
add the new drive as a dedicated spare (see sections F.1.1, "Adding a
Dedicated Spare" on page 276 and F.2, "Enabling Dynamic Spares" on
page 278) or as a pool spare (see section F.3.1, "Adding a Spare to the
Spare Pool" on page 280). Remember that any pool spares added might
be used by any critical array, not necessarily the array you want.
