Failure Detection Measures
The Universal RAID Utility provides several fault detection measures as shown in Figure 21 Troubleshooting image of
RAID System. The measures are described below.
Status Display by RAID Viewer
The RAID Viewer indicates the status of the RAID System with the icons of components on the Tree View and the
[Status] in the Property tab of each component.
For details of the icons of components on the Tree View, see "Tree View".
See "Referring to Information on RAID System" about details of [Status] in the Property tab.
Status Display by raidcmd
You can see the status of each component in a RAID System by using "property" command. For the information in
the property, see "
Referring to Information on RAID System
Logging Events to RAID Log
The Universal RAID Utility logs all events occurred in the RAID System to the RAID Log in the Universal RAID Utility.
The data in the RAID Log can be seen by using a text editor or Log Viewer (when the operating system is
Windows). For details of the Log Viewer, see "Functions of Log Viewer".
Note the character code when you see the RAID Log.
Windows (installed folder)/server/raid.log UTF-8
Linux /var/log/raidsrv/raid.log When the character code of the operating system is
EUC : EUC
When the character code of the operating system is not
EUC : UTF-8
VMware ESX /var/log/raidsrv/raid.log UTF-8
For details of events to be registered to the RAID Log, see " Appendix C : Logs/Events ".
The registration of the event to RAID Log starts when raidsrv service is begun, and stops
when raidsrv service is stopped. The event happened when raidsrv service has stopped is
not registered to RAID Log.
Buzzer in RAID Controller
If a RAID Controller is equipped with a Buzzer, the RAID Controller sounds the Buzzer for some types of failures
occurred.
The Buzzer sounds until the stopping it by RAID Viewer or raidcmd.
RAID Viewer
Use [Silence Buzzer] in [Control] menu.
Step 1
Start the RAID Viewer. Check the component in which a failure occurs on the Tree View.
