  • Page 30: Compromised Fault Tolerance

    • RAID 6 with ADG configurations can tolerate simultaneous failure of two drives (with no spares assigned). Compromised fault tolerance If more hard drives fail than the fault-tolerance method allows, fault tolerance is compromised, and the logical drive fails. In this case, all requests from the operating system are rejected with unrecoverable errors.
  • Page 31: Automatic Data Recovery (Rebuild)

    When RAID 1+0 is used, drives are mirrored in pairs. Several drives can be in a failed condition simultaneously (and they can all be replaced simultaneously) without data loss, if no two failed drives belong to the same mirrored pair. When RAID 6 with ADG is used, two drives can fail simultaneously (and be replaced simultaneously) without data loss.
  • Page 32: Failure Of Another Drive During Rebuild

    CAUTION: If the Online LED of the replacement drive stops blinking and the amber Fault LED glows, or if other drive LEDs in the array go out, the replacement drive has failed and is producing unrecoverable disk errors. Remove and replace the failed replacement drive. When automatic data recovery has finished, the Online LED of the replacement drive stops flashing and begins to glow steadily.
