Monitoring Controllers
When MegaRAID Storage Manager is running, you can see the status of all controllers in the left panel. If the controller is operating normally, the controller icon looks like this:
. If the controller has failed, a small red circle appears next to the icon.
To display complete controller Information, click on a controller icon in the left panel of the MegaRAID Storage Manager main menu. The controller properties appear in the right panel. Most of the information on this tab is self-explanatory.
Note the following:
- The Rebuild rate, Patrol read rate, Reconstruction rate, Consistency check rate, and BGI rate (background initialization) are all user selectable. For more information, see Changing Adjustable Task Rates.
- The BBU Present field indicates whether a battery backup unit is installed.
- The Alarm Enabled field indicates whether the controller has an alarm to alert the user with an audible tone when there is an error or problem on the controller. Options are available on the controller Properties tab for silencing or disabling the alarm.
The controller properties are defined in the Glossary.
