In an everRun system, use the everRun Availability Console to manage logical disks by activating a new logical disk and responding to a failed logical disk.
In some cases, you need to activate a new logical disk even though the everRun software automatically recognizes new logical disks that the RAID controller presents to the operating system. For information, see Activating a New Logical Disk.
You need to respond to alerts regarding missing or failed logical disks. everRun software may detect a logical disk failure when a physical disk is removed or fails. The everRun software then generates an alert that appears on the DASHBOARD. The following alerts are examples:
On the Physical Machines page of the everRun Availability Console, the Storage tab for each PM identifies logical disks that have failed. For information, see The Physical Machines Page.
When a logical disk has failed, system storage is frozen. You cannot allocate new volumes until you have responded to the alert. Your response might require using the RAID controller BIOS or the Repair button on the masthead. For information, see Responding to a Failed Logical Disk
