Removing Blocked Access
At times, an error may occur in the CacheCade virtual drive and this causes a blocked access to the associated virtual
drive.
An icon appears in front of the affected virtual drive, next to the Optimal status.
It is advisable to wait for sometime for the error in the CacheCade virtual drive to get sorted. You can also try to solve
the error in the CacheCade virtual drive and bring it back to an optimal status. Once the CacheCade virtual drive is in
an optimal status, the blocked virtual drive returns to its former access policy automatically.
If it is not possible to bring the CacheCade virtual drive to its optimal status, follow these steps to remove the blocked
access from the virtual drive:
1.
Right-click on the icon on the virtual drive with the blocked access, and select Remove Blocked Access.
The Confirm Remove Blocked Access dialog appears, as shown in the following figure.
