Name

Main > Manage > Storage > Scan — Use this command to refresh the storage disks and devices information.

SYNOPSIS

Scan

DESCRIPTION

This command enables you to refresh the storage disks and devices information.

Note:

Whenever a storage device is connected or disconnected, use this command to detect the storage device, or refresh its status. If the disks of the connected storage device are in a foreign state, import the RAID group, and run the Scan command. If the Scan command does not display the updated storage device information, then restart the appliance to refresh the storage device information.

OPTIONS

Scan

Use to refresh the storage disks and devices information.

EXAMPLES

The following example displays the initiated procedure when you run the Scan command.

Storage > Scan
- [Info] Performing sanity check on disks and partitions...(5 mins approx)
- [Info] The Scan operation can take up to 15 minutes to complete.
- [Info] Initiating refresh of the storage devices...
- [Info] Succeeded.

NOTE: If you perform a 'Main-Manage-Storage Show Disk' command 
and the device information does not appear in the output, verify
if the disk drives are in a foreign state. If the disk drives are
in foreign state, import them and then perform a 
'Main > Manage > Storage Scan' operation to refresh the device 
information. The device information may appear properly. 
If the device information still does not appear, then restart
the appliance to refresh the device information.

For 53xx appliances, the connected devices are scanned and the following output may be displayed:

Storage> Scan
- [Info] Performing sanity check on disks and partitions... (5 mins approx)
- [Info] The scan operation can take up to 15 minutes to complete.
- [Info] Refreshing the storage devices...
- [Info] Created 14 new disks (RAID groups) on External Storage.
- [Info] Succeeded.

- [Info] The new disks are being initialized. The disk initialization 
happens in the background and may take up to 56 hours depending on the 
system load. You can continue to use the appliance during this time. 
However, if one or more of the new disks are used by partitions during 
the disk initialization process, the performance of backup and restore 
operations on the specific disks degrades by up to 30%.

NOTE: If you run the 'Manage->Storage->Show Disk' command and the 
device information does not appear in the output, run the 
'Manage->Storage->Scan' to import and refresh the device information. 
If the device information still does not appear, restart the appliance to 
refresh the device information.
