INITIALIZING, REBUILDING, AND
SYNCHRONIZING RAID ARRAYS
This chapter describes the following MediaShield tasks:
• Initializing a RAID Array
• Erase the data on the array by writing all zeros to the sectors of each hard disk.
• Rebuilding a RAID Array
• Rebuild a broken mirrored array
• Watch the progress of rebuilding of an array
• Only applies to RAID 1, RAID 0+1, and RAID 5 arrays
• Synchronizing a RAID Array
• Rebuild the redundancy in RAID 1 or RAID 0+1 arrays (copy the data to the
redundant disk—the same operation as rebuilding)
• Rebuild the parity in RAID 5 arrays
