Rebuilding Logical Drives; Solving Notification Problems - Adaptec Storage Manager User Manual

Rebuilding Logical Drives

A hot-swap rebuild occurs when a controller detects that a failed disk
drive in a logical drive has been removed and then reinserted.
To start a hot-swap rebuild:
Following manufacturer's instructions, gently pull the failed disk
1
drive from the server without fully removing it, then wait for it to
spin down fully before continuing.
If there is nothing wrong with the disk drive, reinstall it, following
2
manufacturer's instructions.
If necessary, replace the failed disk drive with a new disk drive of
equal or larger size.
The controller detects the reinserted (or new) disk drive and begins
3
to rebuild the logical drive.

Solving Notification Problems

To test notifications on your storage space, you can send test events or
emails to ensure that they're being received properly.
If your test event fails:
Ensure that the remote system is powered on and running Adaptec
1
Storage Manager.
Open the remote system's System Properties window (see
2
page 107) and double-check the TCP/IP address and port number.
Try sending the test event again.

Try sending the test message again.
