3 - Web GUI – Icon Definitions


The Rocket RAID Web GUI uses a variety of Icons to represent various
states or functions. The following is a list of common icons, and their
definitions.

1.

:“Critical-broken” status. Fault-tolerance is disabled. The array

requires a replacement disk in order to rebuild parity.

2.

:“Verifying” status. The controller is checking the consistency of RAID

data.

3.

:“Rebuilding” status. The controller is rebuilding the array.

4.

:“Critical” status (may also be listed as “degraded”). If displayed

above an Array: the array needs to be rebuilt. If displayed above a
Device (disk): this device is a member of the array that needs to be
rebuilt.

5.

:“Disabled” status. An array or device marked as “disabled” has

experienced a major hardware or parity error, and is hidden from the
operating system.

6.

:This icon is shown when an array is being initialized. There are two

types of RAID initialization: The first is known as “foreground” – the
controller will write “0’s” to the array disks. The array cannot be used until
this procedure is complete. The second is “background” – the card will
rebuild the parity data, while enabling access to the array.

7.

:“Uninitialized” status. If displayed above an Array, this Array requires

initialization (see number 6, above). If it appears above a Device (

),

the disk is considered new – it must be initialized before it can be used to
create an array.

8.

:This shows that Array is performing an OCE/ORLM procedure.
