Technical Brief: RAID

5.6. Volume Activity During a

Resynch

Rebooting the 5big Storage Server while Disk Management is Re-

synching a mirror or RAID 5 volume will not harm the configuration

or its data. However, since the process was interrupted, Disk Man-

agement will automatically start a new resynch at 0% once the 5big

Storage Server has rebooted.

Due to the size of large volumes such as the 5big Storage Server

Data (RAID 5), rebooting during a resynch in progress could extend

the operation for many hours.

5.6.2. Accessing Data on a Volume that is

Resynching

A volume that is in the midst of a resynch may be accessed by work-

stations on the network. Users can read or write to the volume. How-

ever, performance will be degraded while Windows Storage Server

is rebuilding the mirror and/or RAID 5.
