This document outlines the steps needed to perform a RAID Data Consistency check (when instructed to perform)

Fix

For systems running pre-R5:

Instructions on how to run RAID Consistency Check against a specific Brick. Please be aware of the following when you pursue this (via the Axiom GUI):
1) This is activated by going to the Support Tab > Tools > Verify System Operation > Click the Data Consistency link > Choose Brick (from puldown) > Choose Low or High Priority > Click Ok
2) It is best to run this during a period of expected low IO for any storage objects that exist in that Brick, only because performance will take between a 10-30% hit (depending on the Priority mode you choose)
3) For a typical brick (under 2TB capacity) this activity may take less than 2 hours, so plan accordingly. Re-engage Support with the results once done.

For systems running post-R5:

Instructions on how to run Data Consistency Check against a specific Brick. Please be aware of the following when you pursue this (via the Axiom GUI):
1) This is activated by going to the Support Tab > Tools > Data Consistency > Right-Click on Brick choice (to bring up a sub-menu) > Choose Verify Data Consistency > Choose Low or High Priority > Click Ok
2) It is best to run this during a period of expected low IO for any storage objects that exist in that Brick, only because performance will take between a 10-30% hit (depending on the Priority mode you choose)
3) For a typical brick (under 2TB capacity) this activity may take less than 2 hours, so plan accordingly. Re-engage Support with the results once done.
