Verify Parity
It is desirable to perform a parity check as a normal maintenance procedure to ensure data integrity.
Also, if a RAID 5/50 array experiences a situation where a controller is replaced after the controller
is powered off with write operations in progress, it may be necessary to verify and correct the parity
data on the array.
1. From the Main screen locate the Configuration section and click the <Array_Name> you wish
to verify parity data in the Arrays section.
2. From the Array screen, click the VERIFY PARITY button.
