The
size
of
the
RAID
disks
determines
how
long
metadata
regeneration
takes.
On
average,
it
takes
an
hour
for
every
100GB.
When
you
run
the
command,
the
CLI
session
is
locked
until
the
command
is
fully
executed.
You
can
use
multiple
CLI
sessions
to
save
time.
For
example,
to
replace
four
RAID
pairs
with
a
total
of
4TB
of
log
data,
launch
four
CLI
sessions
and
run
the
command
in
each
session
to
regenerate
metadata
simultaneously
for
all
the
pairs/slots
in
about
10
hours.
During
metadata
regeneration,
the
Collector
Group
to
which
these
disks
belong
is
not
available
and
the
disk
pair
is
not
available
for
any
logging
or
reporting
operations
(writes/queries).
However,
you
can
perform
other
tasks
such
as
handling
new
firewall
connections
or
managing
configuration
changes
on
the
managed
firewalls.
All
other
Collector
Groups
that
Panorama
manages
and
that
aren’t
part
of
this
RMA
process
can
perform
the
assigned
logging
and
reporting
functionality
as
normal.
