This section displays RAID Array information.
RAID Array Status displays the status of the RAID Array. The following conditions are valid:
Good - The RAID array is a fully operational.
Reduced - The RAID array is operating in a degraded or reduced state. One or more of the physical drives which make up the RAID array are either missing or failed, however the RAID array can continue to operate without data loss.
Failed - The RAID array has failed and is not operational.
Reconstructing - The RAID array is regenerating a failed physical drive's data onto a spare drive that is part of the RAID array. All user data remains available during the reconstruction process, but some performance reduction may occur when a request requires access to the device being reconstructed.
Initialization - The controller is writing its file structure onto the RAID array's member devices.
RAID Level displays the RAID level and a brief description of the selected RAID array.
Capacity displays the total capacity of the RAID array in megabytes.
Physical Drive Channel displays the channel number. Sometimes also called "port".
Physical Drive SCSI ID displays the physical drive SCSI ID number.
Controller displays the controller name.
Spare Status displays the status of the on-line spare drive. The following conditions are valid:
Hot Spare - The drive is attached to this channel is kept spinning whenever the controller is powered up. It is to be automatically brought on-line to replace a failed drive.
Warm Spare - The drive attached to this channel is not spun up until a disk in the array fails. It is to be automatically brought on-line to replace a failed drive.
Adding Spare - The drive is in the process of becoming a spare drive.
