Values for the hardware health are as
follows:

The unconfigured virtual disk may fail
or produce errors, but it is currently
operational.
■ Critical
The unconfigured virtual disk has
failed.
■ Unspecified

Hardware health
The type of disk group that the
unconfigured virtual disk is on.
Disk classifications are as follows:
■ Stripe with parity (RAID 5)
■ Simple (RAID 0)
Backup Exec creates only physical disk
groups with a disk classification of Stripe
with parity (RAID 5). If another disk
classification appears, the disk group was
created with a tool other than the Storage
Provisioning Option.
