The array status consists of three possible conditions: Functional, Critical,
Off-line.
Functional - The array is operational.
Critical - A mirroring array contains a drive that has failed or
disconnected. The remaining drive member in the array is functional.
However, the array has temporarily lost its ability to provide fault
tolerance. The user should identify the failed drive through the
FastBuild TM Setup utility, and then replace the problem drive.
Off-line - A striped array having only 1 drive has failed or been disconnected.
When the array condition is "Off-line", the user must replace the failed drive
