Enabling or Disabling Auto-Verify for a Unit

Auto-Verify can help insure that a unit is verified on a regular basis. This is important, as it can provide early warning of unstable units and possible data loss due to a failing drive.

Auto-Verify is set on a per-unit basis, and works in conjunction with the Verify Schedule, which is set on a controller-wide basis. By default, the Verify Schedule is set to “Basic,” which specifies a weekly day and time for verification to occur when Auto-Verify is enabled.


	Note: If Auto-Verify is disabled for a unit, then verification will only run if you start it manually or in the event of an unclean shutdown. You can start a verify manually at any time. See Starting a Verify Manually.

1	Choose Management >> Controller Settings from the menu bar.

2	In the Unit Policies section of the Controller Settings page check the Auto-Verify box for the appropriate unit. (To disable this policy, uncheck the box.)
