Set Reconstruct Rate

Dell OpenManage™ Server Administrator Storage Management User's Guide

Does my controller support this feature? See "Appendix: Supported Features."

The Set Reconstruct Rate task changes the amount of system resources dedicated to the reconstruct task.

The reconstruct task remakes the virtual disk after you have changed the RAID level or otherwise reconfigured the virtual disk. The reconstruct rate, configurable between 0% and 100%, represents the percentage of the system resources dedicated to running the reconstruct task. At 0%, the reconstruct will have the lowest priority for the controller, will take the most time to complete, and will be the setting with the least impact to system performance. A reconstruct rate of 0% does not mean that the reconstruct is stopped or paused.

At 100%, the reconstruct will be the highest priority for the controller, will minimize the reconstruct time, and will be the setting with the most impact to system performance.

To change the controller's reconstruct rate:

  1. Type a numerical value in the New Reconstruct Rate text box. The value must be within the 0 - 100 range.

  2. Click Apply Changes. If you want to exit and cancel your changes, click Go Back To Controller Information Page.
