degrees Celsius. Using the Enable Smart Thermal Shutdown task, however, you can specify that only the enclosure, and not the operating system and
server be shut down when the enclosure reaches a critical temperature.

If the enclosure has virtual disks that are channel-redundant, then the enclosure can shut down while redundant data continues to be available on another
channel. See "Channel Redundancy and Thermal Shutdown" for more information.

Storage Controllers

The information displayed for each controller can vary depending on the controller characteristics.

NOTE: On the PERC 3/Si, 3/Di, and CERC SATA1.5/6ch controllers, if you pause a check consistency that is being performed on a virtual disk, then the
virtual disk state changes to Resynching Paused. Performing a Global Rescan while a virtual disk is in Resynching Paused state may cause the check
consistency to resume. In this case, the virtual disk state changes to Resynching.
