8.1.3 Precautions when you use the Simulation Tool window
(1) When the new status to be simulated is finalized
From when you select a new status to be simulated from a popup menu on the
Simulation Tool window until when you click Apply, the new status to be simulated is
not finalized and you can change it. The actual status used for simulation is the one
shown in "Setting" in the Simulation Tool window when you click Apply.
(2) Simulating the status of the drives in the RAID
In the case of D Model, the RAID status is determined by the simulation of the condition
of the drives used in the RAID. In some cases, if you select a new status to be simulated
for both drives, the condition of the first drive you selected may change depending on
the condition of the second drive you selected. The following example illustrates the
case where "Offline" is selected for both drives.
1. Select Offline for drive bay1. Then, select Offline for drive bay2.
2. When Offline is selected for drive bay2, the condition of the drive bay1 is changed
back to "---" (Not selected).
