Adaptec asr-5405 kit [69/116] Failed ssd in maxcache device

For more information, refer to the Adaptec RAID Controller Command Line Interface User’s Guide and

the maxView Storage Manager User's Guide.

Note: In some instances, RAID 10 and RAID 50 arrays may survive multiple disk drive

failures, depending on which disk drives fail.

Failed SSD in maxCache Device

Because the maxCache Device is a redundant logical device, comprised of SSDs only, it is rebuilt

automatically when a failed SSD is replaced, just like an ordinary array. Once you identify the failed SSD,

for example, by using maxView Storage Manager's rapid fault isolation feature, replace it with a new

one (see Connecting Solid State Drives (SSDs) on page 45). The controller detects the new SSD and

begins rebuilding the maxCache Device.

Resetting the Controller

You may need to reset, or ash, your Adaptec RAID controller if it becomes inoperable or if a rmware

upgrade is unsuccessful. Adaptec RAID controllers support a reset protocol called HDA mode ash. For

information about HDA mode, see the Readme or contact your support representative. To locate the

ash jumper on your RAID controller board, see the illustrations in About Your RAID Controller on page

16.
