Setting Overwrite ECC (Continue on Source Error
When Rebuilding)
The Overwrite ECC (Continue on Source Error When Rebuilding) policy
is available for units which are redundant. (For units which are not redundant,
this option is not shown on the screen.) When this policy is set, ECC (Error
Correcting Code) errors are ignored when they are encountered during a
rebuild. (ECC errors are typically defects that have been detected in the drive
since initialization.) When this policy is not set, if a unit is rebuilding, the
rebuild will abort when it encounters an ECC error and the unit will be set
back to Degraded.
Since enabling this policy could result in the loss of some source data in the
event of source errors, the default is to not enable this policy. Select this
option only if you want to ensure that a rebuild will complete successfully
without manual intervention. If the rebuild fails and
Overwrite ECC
(Continue on Source Error When Rebuilding)
is not selected, then you
have the option to start another rebuild manually. After completing a rebuild
with this policy enabled, it is recommended that you execute a file system
check when the rebuild completes.
