3-16 Windows Setup and Operation

5.

The disks which RDR has been set can only be used in the system with the ft control software
ver.3.0 or later.

6.

If the system is shut down (or restarted) while the mirror is broken, or a long time (30 hours or
longer) has passed after the mirror is broken, the mirror resynchronization target will be the
entire disk.
For example, if the mirroring has been broken due to a PCI module failure, when you shut
down the system and replace the PCI module in such a state, the entire area of the disk needs
to be resynchronized.

7.

Insert or replace the HDD while the server is powered on if the RDR function is used.
If a new HDD (non-formatted HDD on Windows OS) is inserted to the slot corresponding to
the slot with the disk you specified RDR when the server is powered off, the OS may not be
able to start or the HDD mirroring may not be completed properly.
