%age progress of a RAID Initialization / rebuild

[AF_2]

Hi All,

Silly question - how can I view the current percentage through a RAID initialization / rebuild / expand with the ACU in Windows ?

Early versions used to give a lovely progress bar and percentage, but I can't find it anywhere in the new versions...

This is for W2k3 R2, ACU 8.10.1.0.

I've tried the CLI and can't find anything in there either...

Thanks

Alex

Alex,
It's been a while since I've actually had the opportunity to look, but I don't think the ACU will give you this information. The Systems Management Homepage does, if you look at the adapter.

Hi Tim

Thanks for the reply.

In the SMH I've looked at the RAID 5 logical drive on the controller and the 'Rebuild Percent Complete' just says 'Not Available'.

This is with the 8.15B PSP and the RAID card is using the HP drivers...

Am I looking in the right place or should look somewhere else ?

Thanks

Alex

That's the place that I was referring to. It sounds as if you SMH implementation may have some issues. You might want to try updating the machine to the latest PSP. Other than that, I can't think of anywhere else that you can actually receive updates.

Hi Tim,

Once again, thanks very much for your kind assistance. I shall have a fiddle!
