Monitor Menu
The monitor menu has the following menu options. See Figure 17.
Use View Statistics to supervise the performance of the different components of the RAID
subsystem.
View Events is an enhanced event recorder for RAID and controller-specific events.
Use View Hard Drive Info to view detailed information on the connected devices (important are the
retries, reassigns, grown defects, and last status information).
Use Save Information to create a complete protocol file of the current RAID subsystem including
all settings of the Intel RAID Controller SRCU32 and the drives. This file can be used for remote
diagnosis.
Express Setup / Advanced Setup Menus
Express Setup and Advanced Setup (Chapter 7) have the following menu options. See Figure 17.
1. Use "Configure Host Drives" to configure already existing host drives or create new ones. For
example, you can create a new host drive under normal operation without shutting down the
computer.
2. Use "Repair Array Drives" to repair array drives which have failed drives.
