VTrak 15110 User Manual
244
The VTrak has no LCD panel. How can I set it up and create disk arrays?
There are two ways to set up VTrak and create disk arrays, using WebPAM
PRO, on page 111 or the Command Line Utility, on page 161.
Why do the Rebuild, Synchronize, Expand and Migrate operations take so
long compared to moving data?
When data is moved, the operation consists of reading, writing and checking
one or more files. Rebuild, Synchronize, Expand and Migrate involve
reading, writing and checking all the logical block addresses or individual
data blocks on each disk drive. Plus, your disk array remains available while
these operations take place. These added requirements increase complexity
and take more time.
How can I be sure everything is working OK on the VTrak?
VTrak has several LEDs on the front to monitor the status of power, field
replaceable units (FRUs) and disk arrays. When these are green, VTrak is
functioning normally.
What happens if a disk array goes critical?
On the front of VTrak, the disk array LED turns amber and an audible alarm
sounds. This condition is described in Chapter 4 of the
VTrak User Manual
on the Software CD.
Can VTrak run using just one power supply?
Yes, it is possible to run VTrak on a single power supply. There are two
power supplies so that VTrak will continue running if one of the power supply
fails. But deliberately leaving one power supply off negates this advantage.
Always switch on both power supplies.
