Viewing Logical Drive Initialization

When logical drive is first created, you can choose one of three methods for
initialization:
• Fast Initialization – Erases the reserve and master boot sectors of the
physical drives being added to the logical drive.
• Full Initialization – Erases all sectors of the physical drives being added to
the logical drive. Available for RAID 1, 5, and 10.
• None – No initialization. This choice is not recommended.
When you choose Full Initialization, the process takes some time, depending on
the size of the physical drives selected for the logical drive. The Initialization tab
enables you to view the initialization progress on your logical drive.
To view Initialization progress:
1. Click the Logical Drive View
2. Click the Logical Drive
3. Click the Initialization tab in Management View.
You can monitor Initialization progress on the Initialization tab.
