Logical Drive Synchronization/Redundancy Check<br />
Synchronization refers to an automated process of checking and correcting data<br />
and parity. Unlike a Rebuild, Synchronization is a maintenance operation. You<br />
can also synchronize all logical drives at the same time, see page 75.<br />
Redundancy Check is an automated process of checking data and parity but it<br />
only reports and does not correct, any inconsistencies that it finds.<br />
Synchronization and Redundancy Check apply to RAID 1, RAID 5 and RAID 10<br />
logical drives. When an logical drive is first created and you select Full<br />
Initialization, the same action as Synchronization takes place.<br />
You can set up a Synchronization or Redundancy Check to begin immediately<br />
(on demand) or schedule a Synchronization or Redundancy Check for a time<br />
when there is less demand on the RAID system.<br />
On Demand<br />
