Canceling A Rebuild
Does my controller support this feature? See Supported Features.
Select the Cancel Rebuild task to cancel a rebuild that is in progress. If you cancel a rebuild, the virtual
disk remains in a Degraded state. The failure of an additional physical disk can cause the virtual disk to fail
and may result in data loss. It is recommended that you rebuild the failed physical disk as soon as
possible.
NOTE: If you cancel the rebuild of a physical disk that is assigned as a hot spare, reinitiate the
rebuild on the same physical disk in order to restore the data. Canceling the rebuild of a physical
disk and then assigning another physical disk as a hot spare does not cause the newly assigned hot
spare to rebuild the data. Reinitiate the rebuild on the physical disk that was the original hot spare.
Changing The Virtual Disk Policy
Does my controller support this feature? See Supported Features.
The Change Policy task enables you to change the read, write, or cache policy of a virtual disk. Changes
to the read, write, and cache policy only apply to the virtual disk that you have selected. This task does
not change the policy for all virtual disks on the controller.
You can also modify the physical disk cache policy using this command.
