You should periodically run a consistency check on fault-tolerant virtual
drives. A consistency check verifies that the redundancy data is correct
and available for RAID 1, RAID 5, RAID 6, RAID 10, RAID 50, and
RAID 60 drive groups. To do this, follow these steps:
1. On the main WebBIOS CU screen, select a virtual drive.
2. Click Virtual Drives.
3. When the Virtual Drive screen appears, select CC in the lower left
panel, and click Go.
The consistency check begins.
If the WebBIOS CU finds a difference between the data and the parity
value on the redundant drive group, it assumes that the data is accurate
and automatically corrects the parity value. Be sure to back up the data
before running a consistency check if you think the data might be
corrupted.
