RAID的后台初始化 Background Initialization

Background initialization is a check for media errors on the drives when you create a virtual drive. It is an automatic operation that starts five minutes after you create the virtual drive. This check ensures that striped data segments are the same on all of the drives in the drive group.

在你创建一个虚拟磁盘时，后台初始化用来检查驱动器上的介质错误。当你创建完成虚拟驱动器后5分钟自动开始这个操作。这个检查确认驱动器组的所有驱动器的条带数据段是相同的。

Background initialization is similar to a consistency check. The difference between the two is that a background initialization is forced on new virtual drives and a consistency check is not.

后台初始化与一致性检查类似。两者的不同点是，后台检查对于新的虚拟驱动器是强制的，而一致性检查不是。

New RAID 5 virtual drives and new RAID 6 virtual drives require a minimum number of drives for a background initialization to start. If fewer drives exist, the background initialization does not start. The background initialization needs to be started manually. The following number of drives are required:

新的RAID 5和RAID6虚拟驱动器达到最小的磁盘数量，才会开始后台初始化。如果缺少，则后台初始化不会（自动）启动，需要手工启动。下面是需要的驱动器数量：

 New RAID 5 virtual drives must have at least five drives for background initialization to start.

新的RAID5虚拟驱动器最少需要5块驱动器才能开始后台初始化。

 New RAID 6 virtual drives must have at least seven drives for background initialization to start.

新的RAID6虚拟驱动器最少需要7块驱动器才能开始后台初始化。

The default and recommended background initialization rate is 30 percent. Before you change the rebuild rate, you must stop the background initialization or the rate change will not affect the background initialization rate. After you stop background initialization and change the rebuild rate, the rate change takes effect when you restart background

initialization.

默认并且推荐的后台初始化率是30%。在你修改重建率前，你必须停掉后台初始化，或者修改比例不会影响到后台初始化率。当你停掉后台初始化并且更改了重建率后，当你重启开始后台初始化时更改的比例生效。
