Rebuild Array

The Rebuild Array option allows you to rebuild a disk in the array while the

system is running without disrupting user or application access to the data set.

Note: Rebuilding an array can take up to a f ull day to complete. This operation

occurs in the background and does not impede any work being done. If y ou

need to shutdown, the rebuild operation continues upon restart.

1. Identify the affect disk in the array and replace it.

2. Click on Re build A rray under Management to launch the NVIDIA Rebuild

Array Wizard.

wizard and display the RAID

Array Selection menu.

adds a new disk to that array.

rebuilt onto a new d isk.

array resynchronizes the

data set onto a disk.
