not redundant, a file-system check is recommended to correct the issue. If the
errors persist and cannot be overwritten from a backup copy, perform a final
incremental backup. You will need to replace the defective drive, recreate the
unit, and reinstall the data.
Note: If the unit has not previously been initialized and you
manually select
Verify Unit in either 3BM or 3DM, the
initialization process starts.
Verification of units can be done automatically, on a schedule, or can be
started manually, as described below. For information about scheduling, see
“Scheduling Background Tasks” on page 184.
You can manually start a verify through either 3DM or 3BM.
To verify a unit through 3DM
1 In 3DM, choose
Management > Maintenance.
2In the
Unit Maintenance section of the Maintenance Page, select the unit
you want to verify and click
Verify Unit.
3DM puts the selected unit in verifying mode. If verify scheduling is not
enabled on the Scheduling page, the verification process begins almost
immediately. If verify scheduling is enabled, the unit will not start
actively verifying until the next scheduled time.
A
Stop Verify link appears next to the unit on the Maintenance page. If
you need to stop the verify process, use this link. (If initialization starts
because the unit had not previously been initialized, it cannot be halted, so
no
Stop Verify link appears.)
To verify a unit through 3BM
1 At the main 3BM screen, select the unit by highlighting it and pressing
Enter.
An asterisk appears in the left-most column to indicate that it is selected.
2
Tab to the Maintain Unit button and press Enter.
