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 to the right of the icon.
To display complete controller Information, click on a controller icon in the left panel and click the Properties tab 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 Setting Adjustable Task Rates.
- The BBU Present field indicates whether a battery backup unit is installed.
- The Alarm Present and Alarm Enabled fields indicate whether the controller has an alarm to alert the user with an audible tone when there is an error or problem on the controller. There are options on the controller Properties tab for silencing or disabling the alarm. For more information about controller properties, see Setting Adjustable Task Rates.
