Chapter 3 Service Procedures
For K2 Media Clients with the SCSI controller adapter (LSI board), always use the
Storage Utility to physically identify the failed drive. Accidently removing the wrong
drive can destroy data. To identify a drive, in Storage Utility right-click the drive and
select
Identify . This causes the disk lights to flash. Refer to the K2 Media Client
System Guide for Storage Utility procedures.
For K2 Media Clients without the SCSI controller adapter (LSI board), always open
the Adaptec Storage Manager to identify the failed drive. Accidently removing the
wrong drive can destroy data.
Before removing the disk module, you should use Storage Utility to disable the disk.
Refer to “RAID disk removal” on page 119 for the mechanical procedure for
removing and inserting a drive.
On inserting a RAID 1 replacement drive, if disk access (record/play operations) is
underway, the RAID controller automatically starts rebuilding the drive. You can
verify rebuild status by looking at the drive LED or by looking at the Service LED.
Refer to
“Front panel indicators” on page 39 . If there is no media access currently
underway, you can use Storage Utility to force-start the rebuild process.
You can also check disk status in the Storage Utility by selecting the disk module icon
in the device tree. Status is reported in the right-hand pane. On completion, the disk
drive status changes from Rebuilding to Online. You may need to refresh the Storage
Utility display. You can also open the Progress dialog box, by clicking
View | Progress
Report .
