Verify the Data Consistency of a Drive Group

You can verify the integrity of the RAID parity data that is maintained by the Oracle FS System software by running the data consistency test on a selected drive group. The Oracle FS System writes and maintains the parity data on various drives within a certain drive group. After replacing a drive in one of those drive groups, you might want to confirm that the parity data is consistent on that drive group.
  1. Navigate to Support > Data Consistency.
  2. Select a drive group that you want to verify.
  3. Select Actions > Data Consistency.
  4. From the Verify Data Consistency dialog, specify how much I/⁠O time to give to this operation.
    Valid choices:
    • High Priority
    • Low Priority

    Example:

    For example, if you specify High Priority, this operation could impact Drive Enclosure performance by up to 30%.

  5. To start the data verification, click OK.

After data verification completes, the results appear on the Data Consistency page. Use the refresh button ( alternate image text ) to update the page, if necessary. The system displays the date and time of the most recent integrity test results.
