3. During the OCE/ORLM procedure, the redundancy level of the array will be
the lowest of the source and target arrays; e.g. if you ORLM a RAID 0 array
to a RAID 1 array, the array will be non-redundant until the procedure is
complete.
4. The OCE/ORLM process can be aborted and continued at later time.
However, you should always stop the transform progress from the RAID
Management software.
5. An unexpected system crash may result in data loss while performing OCE/
ORLM on an array. We strongly recommend backing up data before starting
the OCE/ORLM process.
8 - Misc. Array/Device Options
Device Management
The Device Management window provides configuration information about control-
lers (the RocketRAID 2340 and other HighPoint host adapters), channels and hard
disks.
To access the Device Management window, highlight the “Management” menu, and
select the “Device Management” function.
Changing Device Settings
Depending upon the hard disk in question, and support provided by the current
device driver, you can adjust settings for disk: Read Ahead, Write Cache, TCQ, and
NCQ. Each feature can be enabled or disabled individually.
S.M.A.R.T Status
You can view S.M.A.R.T. (Self-Monitoring, Analysis, and Reporting Technology)
data about a drive to help troubleshoot any problems that occur. You can also setup
periodical S.M.A.R.T. status checks that send notification messages when S.M.A.R.
T. thresholds are exceeded.
