The Volume Verify utility keeps track of software, firmware, and hardware errors and reports an event when the number of errors increases.
The Continuous Volume Verify utility does not disrupt device monitoring.
- Continuous Volume Verify will not run on arrays with internal disk scrubbing enabled.
- Volumes are verified one at a time on a rotational basis.
- The Kill Verify function can be used to terminate the verify operations on an array.
- The Device Summary page displays each monitored array with information about Continuous Volume Verify results.
- The execution rate for the volume verification determines the impact on device I/O access to the array. For example, an execution rate of 1 will take longer to verify the volume than higher execution rate values, but will have less effect on device I/O.
