Compex Systems Advanced SerialRAID Adapters SA33-3285-02 - Manual (Page 236)

Notes:
a. If you are running a two-way fast-write operation, and you enable or disable the
fast-write function, the hdisk on the second using system becomes unavailable.
From the second using system, delete that hdisk, and reconfigure as follows:
1) Type: rmdev -l hdiskname -d
2) Run cfgmgr to reconfigure the new hdisk.
b. The fast-write function is disabled only if no data for your selected devices is
present in the fast-write cache. If data for your selected devices is present in the
fast-write cache, and you want to disable the fast-write function, go to step 3.
3. If data for your selected devices is present in the fast-write cache, and you want to
disable the fast-write function, set the Enable Fast Write option to no, and the
Force Delete option to yes. The Force Delete screen is displayed:
Enable/Disable Fast Write for Multiple Devices

| Force Delete |

| |
| Setting Force Delete to ’yes’ will allow the system to disable |
| Fast-Write for this SSA Logical Disk even if this involves |
| discarding data in an inaccessible Fast-Write Cache card. |
| |
| The data in the Fast-Write Cache card is the most recent copy |
| of some portions of the data on the SSA Logical Disk. |
| Discarding this data may destroy the integrity of the data on |
| the disk, resulting in system crashes, data corruption and |
| loss of system integrity. |
| It is suggested that you try selecting no for this option first |
| Force Delete is applicable only if you are setting |
| Enable Fast-Write to ’no’ |
| |
| yes |
| no |
