Enable Audible Alarm – enable or disable the card’s alarm. The alarm will
sound if the disk or array stops responding.

Event Log Path – Use this to select the location of the Web GUI’s event log.

Enable Continue to Rebuild on Error – this setting is disabled by default.
We do not recommend using unless replacement disks are unavailable, or if
recommended by a Customer Support technician.

Set Rebuild Priority – The default setting is Medium. Alter this setting to
lower or raise the priority of an Initialization, Rebuild or Verification session. A
lower setting devotes resources to other systems tasks. A higher setting
prioritizes the RAID maintenance session

Power Saving – Spin-down of idle disks (MAID)

This feature allows the card to safely power down RAID arrays when not in
use.
Allowing idle disks to spin down minimizes the power consumption of the
system’s storage devices.

In addition to saving energy, spinning down unused disks reduces
mechanical wear and the buildup of waste heat, which in turn, can greatly
prolong the life of the system’s storage hardware, over the long-term.


Click on the drop down menu provided for “Spin down idle disk (minutes)”,
and select a time (in minutes). This determines when Host Adapter will
power down idle hard disks.
Click the “Submit” button to activate this feature.

SAF-TE – This setting is related to the system chassis. The RocketRAID
2782 models do not support this option.
Listening Port – This item is the card’s port address. 7402 is the default
setting.

Password – Use this feature to change the Administrator’s password. The
default password is “hpt”.
