Chapter 5 – Monitoring Functions

5.1 Viewing System health and status

The RamSan makes it possible to view system health variables in a variety
of ways. This allows you to easily determine that the system is in good

health and, under rare circumstances, determine that a failure is imminent
or has occurred.

5.1.1

Front Panel Monitoring

When the menu on the front panel is not in use, the display

monitors various aspects of the system. The display presents the
following information:

Restore/Synchronize Progress

During any synchronization
or data restore, the front

panel cycles between the
operation progress and

estimated time remaining
until completion.


The system displays

Restoring Data” when
restoring data from disk
and displays “Initializing

when starting from a
volatile state.


If the system is rebuilding

the disk array, the system
displays “Array

Rebuilding.” If the system
is rebuilding a single disk,
the front panel displays

Disk # Rebuild
indicating the disk number.
