220 Alphabetical list of commands
verify vdisk
versions (Deprecated)
.
Description
Analyzes redundant vdisks to find and fix inconsistencies between their redundancy data and their
user data.
This command acts on disks that are associated with a vdisk and are neither dedicated spares nor
leftovers. This command will fix parity mismatches for RAID 3, 5, 6, and 50, and mirror mismatches
for RAID 1 and 10. This command can be performed only on a vdisk whose status is FTOL (fault
tolerant and online). It cannot be performed for NRAID or RAID 0.
Verification can last over an hour, depending on vdisk size, utility priority, and amount of I/O
activity. You can use a vdisk while it is being verified. To view the progress of a verify (
VRFY
) job,
use the
command.
When verification is complete, event 21 is logged and specifies the number of inconsistencies found.
Such inconsistencies can indicate that a disk is going bad.
TIP:
Unless you want to verify without fixing errors, it is better to use the
command,
which operates similarly to
verify vdisk
and also can find and fix media errors for any RAID
level, including NRAID and RAID 0.
