: If an alert displays above the Maintenance Mode progress bar, this indicates that the
filesystem check has completed, and it has generated a report on the repairable files (which are
displayed in the Repair Report pane under the Maintenance Mode progress bar). To repair all of
the reported files listed in the Repair Report, you must click Confirm Repair Filesystem.
Repair Report:
Displays a list of repairable filesystem files that were detected in the Filesystem Check.
Identifies the repairable files by Container ID, File/Inode/Directory location, and a brief reason for
failure.
Provides a search capability that allows you to click prev or next to display the previous or next page in
the Repair Report, or lets you display a specific page number of the Repair Report by entering this
number in the Goto page and click go.

Once the DR Series system enters Maintenance mode, there can only be two possible outcome states:
Operational mode (Normal State): where the filesystem check was successful, and no system files need to be
repaired (Filesystem Check: successful).
Maintenance mode has halted: where the filesystem check detected one or more repairable files (Filesystem
Check: unsuccessful).
Filesystem Check Successful: when the Maintenance mode successfully completes all of its stages, the DR Series
system displays its status as having entered Operational mode (Normal State). Only after the Maintenance mode has
successfully completed its internal check can it return to an Operational mode.
To return to the Operational mode, click Go to Dashboard on the Maintenance Mode page options bar. Go to Dashboard
is only active when all of the internal system checks have completed and the progress bar indicates that all stages have
been completed.
: You may encounter issues when using data management agents (DMAs) such as NetBackup with expired
backup images when the DR Series system is in its Maintenance mode.
