media PatrOl
Media Patrol is a routine maintenance procedure that checks the magnetic media on each disk drive. Media
Patrol checks are enabled by default on all disk arrays and spare drives. Media Patrol is concerned with the media
itself, not the data recorded on the media. If Media Patrol encounters a critical error, it triggers PDM if PDM is
enabled on the disk array.
Media Patrol Settings
Media Patrol is enabled or disabled using the Background Activities menu or you can create a schedule to run
