Verifying a Logical Drive (Without Fix)
Note:
To verify and fix a logical drive, see
While Adaptec Storage Manager verifies a logical drive, you can't complete any other tasks on
the controller associated with that logical drive. Because verification takes a long time to
complete, you may want to schedule it as a task to be completed overnight or on a weekend.
To verify a logical drive:
1
Ensure that no activity is taking place on the controller associated with the logical drive
you want to verify and fix.
2
In the Enterprise View, click the controller.
3
In the Logical Devices View, click the logical drive.
4
In the menu bar, select Actions, then click Verify.
5
To begin the verification immediately, click Yes.
To schedule the verification for later, click Schedule, set the date and time, then click
Apply. You can also set the verification to recur. (For more information on scheduling
tasks, see page 81.)
Note:
Don't power off the system while the verification is in progress. If you do, the verification
will stop.
While the verification is in progress, the logical drive is shown as an animated icon
(as shown at right) to indicate that the task is in progress.
When the verification is complete, an event notice is generated in the local system's event
log (and broadcast to other systems, if you have event notification set up—see

You can now continue working on the controller.

controller supports background consistency check, right-click the controller in the Enterprise
View, then click Properties.)
To enable or disable background consistency check:
