Verifying and Fixing a Logical Drive
While maxView Storage Manager veries and xes a logical drive, you can't complete any other tasks
on the controller. Because the verication can take a long time to complete, you may want to schedule
it as a task to be completed overnight or on a weekend.
Note: You can also choose to verify the logical drive without xing inconsistent or
bad data.
To verify and x a logical drive:
1. Ensure that no activity is taking place on the controller for the logical drive.
2. In the Enterprise View, select the logical drive.
3. On the ribbon, in the Logical Disk group, click Verify.
The Verify LD window opens.
4. To repair inconsistent or bad data during verication, click Verify with x. To verify the logical drive
without xing bad data, leave the checkbox blank.
5. To verify the logical drive now (immediately), click Verify.
To verify the logical drive later, click Schedule, then set the time and date to perform the verication.
You can also set up the verication as a recurring task. (For more information, see Working with
Scheduled Tasks on page 71.)
Caution: Do not power off the system while the verication is in progress. If you
do, the verication will stop.
When the verication is complete, an event notice is generated in the local system's event log, at
which time you can continue working with the controller.
Enabling/Disabling Background Consistency Check
If your controller supports background consistency check, maxView Storage Manager continually and
automatically checks your logical drives for bad or inconsistent data once they're in use. (To see if your
controller supports background consistency check, select the controller in the Enterprise View then, on
the Storage Dashboard, click Properties.)
To enable or disable background consistency check:
1. In the Enterprise View, select a controller.
2. On the ribbon, in the Controller group, click Set Properties.
