Array Config Utility

[Peter Knowles]

Is there a way for a Proliant ML350 G3 with Array Config Utility 6.40.x to determine the progress of the background parity initialization?

We have a 641 RAID controller, set to high expand/rebuild priority. Array is RAID5, 4 72Gb 10K drives (plus a spare).

Coming up on 5 days. I know it takes time especially with large arrays.

Just trying to check 'under the hood'.

Thanks

HI Peter!

Is there any data on logical rives? You must write some data files for parity building begin

[Peter Knowles]

Yes, there is data.

But a big update from overnight: the parity initilaization completed.

I had just hoped to be able to predict/know when it was going to complete.

I did a bit more research, and saw there was a command-line mode for the ACU. We'll look into how to use this.

Thank you for your interest in our question!
