RAID Scrubbing

RAID Scrubbing*

RAID scrubbing is a data maintenance feature that inspects volumes or disk groups and repairs any detected data inconsistencies. This function can be used with volumes or disk groups that implement SHR (comprised of three or more disks), RAID 5, or RAID 6.

We recommend regularly performing RAID scrubbing in order to maintain data consistency and avoid losing any critical data in the event of hard drive failure.

To perform RAID scrubbing:

1. Open Storage Manager.
2. Go to Volume or Disk Group.
3. Select the volume or disk group on which to perform RAID scrubbing.
4. Click Manage.
5. Select RAID scrubbing.
