Name Displays the virtual disk name.
State Displays the status of the virtual disk. Possible values are:
Ready — The virtual disk is functioning normally.
Degraded — A physical disk in a redundant virtual disk is not
online.
Resynching — A consistency check is being performed on the
virtual disk.
Performing a Cancelling A Check Consistency on a virtual disk
while it is in Resynching state causes the virtual disk to be in a
Failed Redundancy state.
Resynching Paused — A consistency check has been paused on
the virtual disk.
Regenerating — A physical disk in the virtual disk is rebuilding.
Reconstructing — The virtual disk configuration has changed.
The physical disks included in the virtual disk are being modified
to support the new configuration.
Failed — The virtual disk has encountered a failure of one or more
components and is no longer functioning.
Failed Redundancy — This state is displayed when the initial
consistency check for the virtual disk is canceled or is not
successful. This state may also be displayed when a RAID 1, RAID
10 or RAID 1-concatenated virtual disk suffers a physical disk
failure. In addition, there are other conditions related to disk
failures and the firmware that can cause a virtual disk to display a
Failed Redundancy state. When a virtual disk is in Failed
Redundancy state, performing a Check Consistency may return
the virtual disk to a Ready state.
Background Initialization — A background initialization is being
performed on the virtual disk.
Formatting — The virtual disk is being formatted. For more
information, see Format, Initialize, Slow, And Fast Initialize.
Initializing — The virtual disk is being initialized. For more
information, see Format, Initialize, Slow, And Fast Initialize.
On some controllers, the virtual disk state is not updated until the
controller performs an I/O operation. For more information, see
I/O and Reboot Requirements for Detecting Physical Disk Status
Changes.
Degraded Redundancy — This state is applicable to RAID 6 only
in which a physical disk in a redundant virtual disk is not online,
but the virtual disk is still accessible and functioning.
Partitions
This property displays whether the virtual disk has a partition. The
possible values are Not Available and Link to the Partitions
information page.
Virtual Disk Bad Block Displays whether the virtual disk has bad blocks.
