Forcing a disk to rebuild

Forcing a disk to rebuild

With RAID 0 there is no RAID redundancy, so disks do not rebuild. With other RAID
types, such as RAID 1, if media access (record/play) is underway, when you insert a
media disk it automatically begins to rebuild. If there is no media access underway,
to start the rebuild process either begin a media operation or use the following
procedure:

1. In the tree view, identify the faulty disk.

If the disk is not currently in the fault

state, the Rebuild option is not available.

2. In the tree view, right-click the faulty disk and select

Rebuild

.

3. When the message “Succeeded to start rebuild…” appears, click

OK

.

The Service LED on the K2 Media Client displays a flashing pattern alternating
yellow/green once a second.

Unbind LUN

You can only unbind one LUN at a time. Also make sure the controller is not busy
with other processes, such as rebuilding a disk. If the controller is busy, the unbind
LUN operation fails.

CAUTION: Unbinding destroys all data stored on disk modules.

To unbind a LUN, do the following:

1. In the tree view, right-click the LUN and select

Unbind LUN

.

2. If the K2 Media Client is online, messages appear “…offline mode now?” and

“…continue?”. Click

Yes

to put the K2 Media Client in offline mode.

AppCenter channels go offline.

3. When warning messages appear “…destroy all existing media…” and “Are you

sure?”, click

OK

to continue.

4. The Progress Report opens and displays unbind progress.
