2. Enable or disable (by checking or unchecking) any of the following
global parameters:
– Automatic Rebuild Management. Works in conjunction with
SAF-TE disk array enclosures to detect removal of a failed drive
and perform an automatic rebuild after installation of a
replacement drive. Change the default Rate Controls to less than
or equal to 50. Do this by using the slide bar or typing the rate
in the edit box. A rate of 50 dedicates the maximum allowable
resources to a rebuild allowing it to proceed at its fastest.
– Background Initialization.
– Mylex Controllers: Allows logical drive initialization to
take place “behind the scenes” so that the logical drive
is immediately available for use. If you disable this
option, logical drives will need to complete their
initialization process before they can be used. Change
the default Rate Controls to less than or equal to 50. Do
this by using the slide bar or typing the rate in the edit
box. A rate of 50 dedicates the maximum allowable
resources to an initialization allowing it to proceed at its
fastest.
