6. Alarm Conditions / Degraded RAID Set
There are two possible sources for alarms: one from the enclosure monitors, the
other from the RAID C ontroller inside the PRO RXqp.
Enclosure Alarms
(Audible and red indicators):
• Temperature (e nclosure
detected over heating
condition)
• Fan (e nclosure cooling
fan not operational,
could lead to over
heating)
Mute Alarm: Enclosure audible alarm can be muted
by pressing the green mute button above the
indicators, the red indicator remains on until the
condition is corrected.
RAID Controller Alarm
(Audible, Drive Indicators and
RAID Console GUI indicator):
• Degraded RAID Set (one
or more drives not
detected or down)
• Temperature (RAID
Controller detected over
heating)
Mute Alarm: RAID Controller Alarm can be muted by the RAID
Console. Start the RAID Console GUI, go to System Controls > View
Event / Mute Beeper.
The Systems Event Information screen provides a log of events which triggered
the alarm. The example below shows the RAID Set is degraded because IDE
Channel 4 (drive 4) was removed.

6.1. Replacing a Disk Module
A defective Disk Module can be easily replaced. Drive Hot Swapping is not an
option with the PRO RXqp without interruption to your workflow. If the RAID is
operating in one of the drive redundant RAID modes (1,3,5,6) we need to identify
the downed disk drive. See Appendix A at the end of this manual for detailed
instructions on replacing a downed disk module.
In a redundant RAID mode, rebuild will start automatically after replacement of a
defective disk module.
• Pull the Lock Pin down and pull the Disk Module (Pack) out that has the
downed drive and proceed to Appendix A for detailed instructions on
replacing a downed disk module.
