Use this option to enable a storage subsystem media scan
Procedure
1 |
From the Subsystem Management Window, either select the Storage Subsystem >> Change Media Scan Settings pull-down menu option or use the right mouse button to select the storage subsystem in the Logical View. Then, select Change Media Scan Settings from the pop-up menu. Result: The Change Media Scan Settings dialog is displayed. |
2 |
Check the Enable background media scan checkbox, if it is not already checked. |
3 |
Select a number in the spinner box to specify the duration (in days) of the media scan. |
4 |
Select OK. Result: The Media Scan settings for the storage subsystem are changed. The Media Scan duration specifies the number of days over which the media scan should run on the eligible logical drives. For efficiency, the storage subsystem controller will complete the media scan at a faster rate when I/O either is not occurring or is very light. Although the media scan may complete more quickly than you have specified, the storage management software will not restart a complete media scan until the specified number of days has elapsed. |
