What happens if a logical drive goes critical?
On the front of VTrak, the logical drive LED turns amber and the buzzer
sounds (if enabled). See "Critical & Offline Disk Arrays" on page 336.
VTrak's Netsend service does not report all events to Windows PCs.
This condition results from a shortcoming in Windows Messenger that
causes miscommunication with Netsend. Promise is developing a
workaround at the time of this writing. Note that all events are correctly
reported in the Event Viewer.
