Meaning/Description

Production Partition

Production: Active

P.A (PA)

Drive is active.

Production: Broken

P.B (PB)

Drive is inactive and marked as broken. After its data is moved to
a spare, broken drive is removed from Production partition and
put in ‘Unavailable: Broken’ (U.B) state.

Production: Copy

P.C (PC)

Drive is receiving data from drain of Production drive.

Production: Draining

P.D (PD)

Drive is being drained.

Production:
Initialize Array

P.I (PI)

Drive is part of array initialization process.

Production:
Pending Drain

P.P (PP)

Drive is awaiting drain, but drain cannot start because:

• Broken-to-spare data reconstruction is in progress
• Another drive in the array is being drained
• The number of spares is inadequate (occurs if number of

spares was reduced after drain request was accepted).

Production:
Reconstruction

P.R (PR)

Data from broken drive is being reconstructed on spare drive,
which moves to ‘P.A’ state when reconstruction finishes.

Production:
Unknown Drive State

P.? (P?)

Drive is broken but cause is unknown. Usually means data is be-
ing reconstructed to a spare, but may indicate other unknown
state. After its data is moved, the broken drive moves from the
Production partition to an ‘Unavailable: Broken’ (U.B) state.

Media Acceptance Test (MAT) Partition

MAT: Active

M.A (MA)

Drive is active and available for allocation as a spare.

MAT: Fenced

M.F (MF)

Drive is fenced because GFR function is in progress.

MAT: Drive Not Ready

M.? (M?)

Drive is not active due to diagnostic error. After failure is isolated,
broken drive is removed from MAT partition and put in ‘Unavail-
able: Broken’ (U.B) state.

Spares Partition

Spare: Active

S.A (SA)

Drive is available to form arrays, reconstruct data, or receive da-
ta from drain operation.

Spare: Fenced

S.F (SF)

Drive is fenced for drive test.

Spare: Pending Drain

S.P (SP)

Drive is awaiting drain pending completion of drive test.

Spare: Drive Failure

S.? (S?)

Drive is not active for unknown reason (possible failure). After
failure is isolated, broken drive is removed from Spares partition
and put in ‘Unavailable: Broken’ (U.B) state.

Unavailable Partition

Unavailable: Broken

U.B (UB)

Drive is broken.

Unavailable: Isolated

U.I (UI)

Drive is isolated from the SSA loop configuration.

Unavailable:
No Active Drive Module

U.N (UN)

No active drive is sensed in this slot.

Unavailable:
Slot Not Installed

U.S (US)

No drive is installed in this slot.
