Introduction
Automatic Rebuild On Replacement
Adaptec RAID controllers support a feature known as Automatic
rebuild on replacement. This may be useful in the event of a drive
failure if no hot spare is available and the failing drive is in an SES
or SAF-TE enabled drive enclosure.
When this feature is enabled (default) a rebuild of any redundant
array that the failed drive was a member of will be triggered
automatically by simply removing the failure drive and replacing it
with a new drive.
SCSI Devices Supported
In addition to SCSI hard disk drives, Adaptec RAID controllers
support a wide range of SCSI devices, from CD-ROMs and tape
drives to scanners and removable media drives.
Supported Controllers
The majority of this chapter and all the other documentation
supplied with your controller describes the capabilities of the
RAID controllers listed in the left column of
Table 1-2 . Adaptec
Storage Manager-Browser Edition also supports other Adaptec
RAID controllers provided the RAID management software
supplied with those cards, Adaptec Storage Manager or Adaptec
Storage Manager Pro is already installed on the system.
