Fault-Tolerance Features

The ADAC Ultra2 S466 fault-tolerance features are:

• automatic failed drive detection,

• automatic failed drive rebuild with no user

intervention required,

• hot swap manual replacement without bringing the

system down, and

• SAF-TE compliant enclosure management.

Detect Failed Drive The ADAC Ultra2 S466 firmware automatically detects

and rebuilds failed drives. This can be done transparently

with hot spares.
