Using The FastCheck™ Monitoring Utility
You can monitor the operating status of all arrays and drives configured on the
FastTrak100 using the supplied FastCheck monitoring utility for Windows -based
operating systems. FastCheck generates visual and audible messages alerting you
of possible problems with the disk array or controller.
FastCheck visually identifies the physical location of attached drives on the
FastTrak100 by IDE channel (1 or 2) and setting (Master/Slave). It also displays
which drives are included as part of individual arrays. Administrators can customize
FastCheck to maintain operating logs and event notification, set Password access
to the utility, and schedule maintenance on Mirrored (RAID 1) or a Striped/Mirrored
(RAID 0/1) arrays.
