Identifying a Failed or Failing Component
When your are notified of a Warning- or Error-level event, use Adaptec Storage Manager’s
rapid fault isolation feature to quickly identify the source of the problem.
For instance, in this example, a disk drive has failed. To find the failed disk drive, follow the
yellow Error icons:
Error is on a remote system...
...on Controller 1...
...on Device 1.
Double-click Device 1 to open
the Properties window and
continue tracing the fault to its
source...
...a disk drive failure.
