Displays the status of the virtual disk. Possible values are:
Ready — The virtual disk is functioning
normally.
Degraded — A physical disk in a redundant
virtual disk is not online.
Resynching — A consistency check is being
performed on the virtual disk.
Performing a Cancelling A Check
Consistency on a virtual disk while it is in Resynching state
causes the virtual disk to be in a Failed Redundancy state.
Resynching Paused — A consistency check
has been paused on the virtual disk.
Regenerating — A physical disk in the virtual
disk is rebuilding.
Reconstructing — The virtual disk configuration
has changed. The physical disks included in the virtual disk are being
modified to support the new configuration.
Failed — The virtual disk has encountered
a failure of one or more components and is no longer functioning.
Failed Redundancy — This state is displayed
when the initial consistency check for the virtual disk is cancelled
or is not successful. This state may also be displayed when a RAID
1, RAID 10 or RAID 1-concatenated virtual disk suffers a physical
disk failure. In addition, there are other conditions related to disk
failures and the firmware that can cause a virtual disk to display
a Failed Redundancy state. When a virtual disk is in Failed Redundancy
state, performing a Check Consistency may return the virtual disk
to a Ready state. This state only applies to virtual disks on a CERC
SATA1.5/6ch, and CERC SATA1.5/2s controller.
Background Initialization — A background
initialization is being performed on the virtual disk.
On some controllers, the virtual
disk state is not updated until the controller performs an I/O operation.
For more information, see I/O and Reboot Requirements for Detecting
Physical Disk Status Changes.
Degraded Redundancy — This state is applicable
to RAID 6 only in which a physical disk in a redundant virtual disk
is not online, but the virtual disk is still accessible and functioning.
Partitions
This property displays whether the virtual disk has a partition.
The possible values are Not Available and Link
to the Partitions information page.
Virtual Disk Bad Block
Displays whether the virtual disk has bad blocks.
Encrypted
Displays whether the virtual disk is encrypted. The possible
values are Yes and No.
Hot Spare Policy Violated
Displays whether the Hot Spare Protection Policy has been violated.
Layout
Displays the RAID level.
Size
Displays the total capacity of the virtual disk.
The algorithm
for calculating the virtual disk size rounds a value of 0.005 or less,
down to 0.00 and a value between 0.006 and 0.009, up to 0.01. For
example, a virtual disk size of 819.725 is rounded down to 819.72.
A virtual disk size of 819.726 is rounded up to 819.73.
Associated Fluid Cache State
This property displays the associated Fluid Cache state
of the virtual disk. The possible values are
Active — The Fluid Cache disk is active.
Failed — The Fluid Cache has encountered
a failure of one or more components and is no longer functioning.
No — The Fluid Cache is not enabled.
Disabling — In this transient state, the
cache removal from the virtual disk is in process.
Device Name
Displays the operating system device name for this object.
Bus Protocol
Displays the technology that the physical disks included in
the virtual disk are using. Possible values are:
SCSI
SAS
SATA
Media
Displays the media type of the physical disks present in the
virtual disk. The possible values are:
HDD
SSD
Unknown — Storage Management is unable
to determine the media type of the physical disk.
