Trusting an Array
The Trust Array Function brings an array back online by
resynchronizing the time and date stamp and any other metadata
on a bad disk drive. This makes the disk drive an active member of
the array again. You might need to do this when
■
One or more disk drives of an array start up more slowly or
were powered on after the rest of the disk drives in the array.
This causes the date and time stamps to differ, which the
controller interprets as a problem with the late disk drives. In
this case, the array will function normally after using Trust
Array.
