Property Definition

Rebuild Rate Rebuild rate is the percentage of resources available on a system

dedicated to rebuild a failed disk when necessary. For more

information on rebuild rate, see Setting The Rebuild Rate.

NOTE: The value for the Revertible Hot Spare operation is the

same as the value set for the Rebuild Rate property.

BGI Rate The background initialization (BGI) rate is the percentage of resources

available on a system dedicated to perform the background

initialization of a virtual disk after it is created. For more information on

BGI rate, see Setting Background Initialization Rate.

Check Consistency Rate The check consistency rate is the percentage of resources available on

a system dedicated to perform check consistency on a redundant

virtual disk. For more information, see Performing A Check

Consistency.

Reconstruct Rate The reconstruct rate is the percentage of resources available on a

system dedicated to reconstruct a disk group after adding a physical

disk or changing the RAID level of a virtual disk residing on the disk

group. For more information on reconstruct rate, see Setting The

Reconstruct Rate.

Alarm State Displays whether the alarm on the controller is enabled or disabled.

NOTE: This property is displayed only for SCSI storage controllers.

Abort Check Consistency on

Error

Enables you to stop the Check Consistency operation on error. This

property is available only on controllers that have controller firmware

version 6.1 and later.

Allow Revertible Hot Spare

and Replace Member

Enables the automatic copying of data from a physical disk to a hot

spare (in case of predictive failure) or from a hot spare to a physical

disk (in case of replacement of a degraded disk). For more information,

see Enabling Revertible Hot Spare.

Load Balance Provides the ability to automatically use both controller ports or

connectors connected to the same enclosure to route I/O requests.

This property is available only on SAS controllers that have controller

firmware version 6.1 and later.

Auto Replace Member on

Predictive Failure

Enables the automatic copying of data from a physical disk to a hot

spare in case of predictive failure. Use this property in conjunction with

the Allow Revertible Hot Spare and Replace Member property.

Redundant path view Indicates whether Storage Management has detected a redundant path

configuration. Storage Management detects a redundant path

configuration when both controller ports are connected to the same

enclosure that is in a unified mode. For more information, see Setting

The Redundant Path Configuration.
