WebBIOS Configuration Utility 9
Scan Devices
When you select Scan Devices from the Main Menu screen, WebBIOS
checks the physical and logical drives to see if there are any changes to the
drive status. It displays the results of the scan on the Main Menu screen in
the physical and logical drives section. For example, if a physical drive has
failed, the word Failed displays to the right of the drive name under the
Physical Drives heading.
Fast
Initialization
When enabled, zeros are written to the first sector of the
logical drive so that initialization occurs in 2 – 3 seconds.
When disabled, a full initialization takes place on the entire
logical drive. On a larger array (over 5 arrays), it is best to set
fast initialization to Disabled, then initialize. Otherwise, the
controller will run a background consistency check within
five minutes of reboot or RAID 5 creation.
Cache Flush
Timings
Selects the amount of time between cache flushes. The
contents of the cache are flushed to maintain data integrity.
Auto Rebuild When enabled, drives are automatically rebuilt when they
fail.
Set Factory
Defaults
Select Yes to load the default WebBIOS Configuration
Utility settings. "Logical Drive Definition" on page20 lists
some of the default settings.
