Init status:

In normal operation the status should be “Success”. Possible error conditions are “Disk too small”, “Incorrect

disk count”, “Invalid RAID set”, “Multiple RAID sets”, “Disk erase fail” and “Unknown init error”. Any of these

messages indicate a problem with the RAID array.

Individual drive information:

Port Status:

Indicates the condition of the drive within the array

“Active” means the disk is in use in the array

“Hot standby” means that a RAID mode has been selected that includes a standby drive that will be auto-

matically added to the array to replace a failed drive.

“Spare” and “Unused” mean that a RAID mode has been selected that does not require the drive.

“Rebuilding” indicates that the drive is in use in the array but that the data is being rebuilt. Under normal

operation this will not occur. Occasionally after an improper shutdown - for example if the unit was powered

down while data was being written to the disk - you may see a rebuild. If you see repeated rebuilds, please

contact Glyph support.

“Failed” means that the drive has been removed from the array due to failure.

“Missing” means that no drive is detected, likely due to disk failure.

Drive errors and rebuild status:

Persistent and recoverable errors: Recoverable errors are write errors that required a retry to complete.

Persistent errors indicate a disk area that cannot be read from or written to. These should normally be zero.

Non-zero numbers indicate a drive that is starting to fail.

Drive smart status:

For “Active” drives “smart status” should normally be “Disk OK”. “Disk failing - DANGER!” and “SMART not en-

abled” indicate a drive problem which requires the drive be replaced.
