Information, Caution, and Critical icons similar to those above are
displayed next to any device or array in the Devices or Arrays pane
when something has happened to a device or array. You may also
see a Diagnose button in the Command Buttons pane. See the next
section for information about the Diagnose button.

Using the Diagnose Button

The Diagnose button appears on the System Browser Command
Buttons pane and is activated when Storage Manager Pro detects a
problem with the selected system, device, or array. Using the
Diagnose function, you can see details about the problem including
a list of warning and critical events generated from the system
where the problem occurred.
For example, if you are creating a RAID 5 set, you will notice a
Caution icon
array. If you select the array in the Arrays pane, the Diagnose
button is then activated. Clicking the Diagnose button would
explain that the array is nonredundant during the verify process.
Once the verify process is complete, the array will be redundant,
the Caution icon removed, and the Diagnose button will be
unavailable.
