G.9 Changing the Utility Priority
You can change the priority at which all utilities (Verify, Reconstruct, Expand, Initialize, etc.) run when
there are active I/O operations competing for the X24 Subsystem's CPU. The choices are:
• High (default)
• Medium
• Low
For example, select High if your highest priority is to get the array back to a fully fault-tolerant state. This
causes heavy I/O with the host to be slower than normal. Select Low priority if streaming data without
interruption, such as for a Web server, is more important than data redundancy. This allows the
Reconstruct or other utility to run at a slower rate with minimal effects on host I/O.
To change the utility priority:
1 From the System Menu, select Configuration Menu and press Enter.
The Configuration Menu displays.
2 Select Utility Priority and press Enter.
The Utility Priority screen displays. The current setting is marked with an * next to it.
