FastCheck Monitoring Utility Main Screen

Once FastCheck is selected, the FastCheck Monitoring Utility window will
appear. The main pane has three information window tabs: Array, Controller,
and Options. The Array tab is the default screen as shown below:

Array Window

The Array Window displays information about the arrays configured on your
FastTrak66 through the FastBuild BIOS. From this window, you can also per-
form data Synchronization of mirrored arrays, or Rebuild data from one drive
to a replacement drive within a mirrored array. While the Array Window does
not allow you to change the array configurations directly, it clearly identifies
which drives are associated with each array shown in the left pane. By left-clic-
king on the Array #, the right pane shows the following information categories
for that array:
RAID mode: (Striping, Mirroring, Mirroring & Striping, Spanning)
Mapping: (similar to physical drive specifications) describing # of cylinders,
heads, and sectors of the array's "virtual" drive as seen by the system
Size: Storage capacity of the array
Status: (Functional, Critical, Offline)
Functional: Means the array is providing full functionality
