Nokia Network Voyager for IPSO 4.0 Reference Guide 155
Note
The source hard disk drive and the mirror hard disk drive should have identical
geometries. You can view hard-disk drive geometry in the Drivers Information table.
3. Click Apply.
Text at the top of the Network Voyager window with a message indicates a mirror set was
created, numbers indicates which hard disk drive is the source and which hard disk drive is
the mirror, and that mirror synchronization is in progress.
Note
The synchronization percent value in the Mirror Set table indicates the percentage of
synchronization zones that are copied from the source disk to the mirror disk. A sync zone is
equivalent to contiguous disk sectors. When all synchronization zones are copied to the
mirror disk, the synchronization percent value reads 100 percent and your platform is
protected from a disk failure. Synchronization time is approximately 20-30 minutes for a 20
GB disk. No mirror set is created if the synchronization operation is not successful.
To delete a mirror set
1. Click Disk Mirroring under Configuration > System Configuration in the tree view.
2. Select the Delete check box in the Mirror Sets table.
3. Click Apply.
Note
You can only delete a mirror set that is 100-percent synchronized.
Using an Optional Disk (Flash-Based Systems Only)
You can add flash memory PC card in flash-based (diskless) systems so that you can store log
files locally. When you install a PC card (optional disk) for logging, you must reboot the system
to make it available for use.
When you insert a PC card into a flash-based platform and select the card as an optional disk,
any existing data on the card is erased. If you remove a PC card that contains log files and want
to permanently store the data, insert the card into a PC or other computer and save the data to
that system before reinserting the card into a Nokia flash-based platform.
Note
Use only PC card flash memory that is supported for your platform. If you attempt to use PC
card flash memory that has insufficient capacity, it is not recognized by the system.
