Adtron I35MB Operations Manual
Introduction
The Adtron™ Diskpak™ Model I35MB with Adtron ActiveRAID™ technology
incorporates RAID-1 mirroring in a 3.5-inch hard disk form factor. RAID-1 mirroring
between two hard disk drives provides data redundancy and rebuild independent
from the host CPU. With both disk drives functioning properly, the I35MB keeps
both disk drives automatically updated. If one of the drives fails, the system
continues to operate on a single disk drive until the I35MB is removed from the
chassis and the failed drive is replaced. When the I35MB is reconnected and
powered up, a rebuild can be initiated on the I35MB concurrent with host activity.
Once the rebuild is manually started, it continues unattended until complete.
ActiveRAID technology significantly reduces the probability of a data storage failure
causing an overall system failure.

Advanced Operations
The individual banks may be taken off-line (powered down and/or replaced) at any
time, for preventative maintenance or due to a failure. However, taking a bank
offline automatically faults the mirror, requiring a rebuild. To clear a hard or soft
fault, the rebuild must complete.
Managing Faults
The I35MB has two fault indicators: hard and soft. Refer to page 19, for the specific
bank fault LED indicators to interpret these two types of faults.
8
Rev. 003, PN: 610200094
Adtron I35MB Operations Manual
Adtron recommends having a system back-up available prior to managing hard
or soft faults.
Bank Hard Faults
Hard fault errors may originate from any one of the following:
•
•
•
Write errors
Track 0 Not Found read error
HDD Timeout after a command
If a hard fault occurs on one bank, the I35MB continues to read and write data to the
other functioning bank. The I35MB is running in a degraded mode, which should be
corrected as soon as possible. When the I35MB detects a hard fault, the faulted drive
is taken offline and the RAID-1 operation between the drives is broken. The audible
buzzer sounds and the bank fault LED turns solid orange. If this occurs, the faulted
drive must be replaced. See Turning the Buzzer Off on page 10 for more
information.
Adtron recommends regularly backing up data; and, should a fault occur,
scheduling a replacement and rebuild as soon as possible.
If either a hard or soft fault occurs while the I35MB is running in a
degraded mode, the I35MB sends an error code to the host and continues
to operate.
Bank Soft Faults
Soft fault errors are caused by a read error on a drive. If a soft fault occurs, the I35MB
continues to mirror data to both drives, but is running in a degraded mode, which
should be corrected as soon as possible. The bank with the soft fault remains online
with a continuously flashing orange bank fault LED. The soft fault can only be reset
by rebuilding the faulted drive; or, replacing it and then performing a rebuild. Refer
to Rebuilding a Bank on page 13. At this time, one of two actions is required:
•
•
Rebuild the faulted drive
Replace and rebuild the faulted drive
9
Rev. 003, PN: 610200094
Adtron I35MB Operations Manual
Rebuilding the faulted drive may take several hours, depending on the size
of the media and may result in a hard fault if the drive cannot “map” around
any “bad” sectors. While rebuilding can result in a reliable storage device
and workable drive, Adtron recommends replacing the drive in the field that
exhibits a soft fault and then rebuilding and testing this drive in a non-
critical test environment to determine if this drive can be used as a spare.
Turning the Buzzer Off
The audible buzzer goes off when a hard fault occurs on one of the two disk drives.
When a hard fault occurs, the RAID-1 mirror is broken and maintenance is required.
To turn the buzzer off:
1. If possible, pop the removable plastic panel off the drive bay in which the I35MB
is installed. If the I35MB does not have front access through a drive bay,
continue with Changing Media on this page.
2. Depress the Buzzer Reset button, labeled S4 in Figure 7 on page 7.
3. Note the bank number, 0 or 1, with the fault LED turned solid orange. This is the
bank that requires attention.
4. Schedule a time to power down the computer and remove the I35MB.
„
Changing Media
Static Sensitive - The I35MB is a static sensitive device. Take
precautions to ensure that static does not discharge into the I35MB.
To change the bank with the fault:
1. Make sure you are appropriately grounded.
2. If accessible from the front cover, pop the faceplate off the bay with the I35MB
inserted. Push the Buzzer Reset button (S4) on the I35MB to turn off audible
alarm, if applicable.

being fully seated) re-attach the flex cable to the disk drive. Refer to Figure 10 for
a view of this procedure. Carefully align and slowly attach. Pay close attention to
mounting the flex cable. Ignoring this procedure and caution can lead to damage
in future operations.
13. Tighten the retaining screw for the new disk drive.
14. The I35MB may be re-inserted in the disk drive bay, as described in Inserting the
I35MB on page 5 of this document. If your computer system does not provide
front access to the I35MB when it is installed in the bay, then connect the I35MB
to the primary or secondary ports on the IDE controller and power cable external
to the computer system to do the rebuild. The front LEDs and buttons must be
available to do the rebuild.
15. After securing the I35MB, a rebuild must be performed. Go to Rebuilding a
Bank on page 13.
„
Resetting Mirroring Indicators
The procedure below provides steps to reset the mirror indicators on the I35MB.
These steps address mirror indicators and DO NOT address resetting mirroring data
or data equilibrium. In addition, following these steps will only ensure subsequent
writes will be mirrored. For more information on resetting mirroring operations
beyond mirror indicators, refer to the section of this manual titled, Rebuilding a
Bank, on page 13.
Static Sensitive - The I35MB is a static sensitive device. Take
precautions to ensure that static does not discharge into the I35MB.
To reset mirror operations and change both banks:
1. While power is OFF, verify both banks are unpopulated.
2. Cycle the I35MB power to the ON state (for 5 seconds or more), then the OFF
state.
3. Insert media into desired banks.
4. Cycle power ON.
5. Once powered ON, all subsequent writes will be mirrored.
„

Rev. 003, PN: 610200094
Adtron I35MB Operations Manual
Rebuilding a bank
After a bank has been replaced, a rebuild must be performed. To start a Bank
Rebuild, press the mirror control button between 5 and 10 seconds on the off-line
bank. Release the button when the Access LED starts flashing at 2 blinks per second.
The rebuild process begins, indicated by the Access LED turning solid green and the
Fault LED flashing green. When complete, the Fault LED changes from flashing
green to off. It is faster to do the rebuild when there is no host activity to the I35MB.
A rebuild operation copies the contents of the entire media at a rate of
roughly 5 MB/sec, requiring several hours for large capacities. Depending
on concurrent host activity, the rebuild process may be slowed. The higher
the level of concurrent host activity, the more the rebuild process may be
impacted (slowed).
Rebuilding a Bank Off-line
Only the power connection is required to do the rebuild if you want to have a
rebuild complete before bringing the drive on line. No host activity interruption
results in the fastest rebuild time.
Using Different Size Media
The I35MB can support different size drives in each bank and still operate the
mirroring function. The rules for this operation are as follows:
Media inserted to replace the factory original must have a capacity that is equal to or
greater than the original media size.
The capacity of the mirrored unit remains the same size as when shipped from the
factory. In other words, if the drive shipped from the factory with a capacity of
20GB, it will retain that capacity regardless of the actual capacity of the media in
either bank.
Any media inserted into a bank that is smaller than the original capacity can not be
used for mirroring. Rebuild attempts to a smaller media will not start. The LEDs will
indicate a mirror fault condition.
13
Rev. 003, PN: 610200094
Adtron I35MB Operations Manual
Examples:
A new I35MB is installed in the field with two 20GB capacity media for 20GB of
mirrored storage. Bank 1 requires replacement. A 10GB media is installed and
the button pressed for rebuild. Rebuild will not start and the mirror remains
broken.
A 40GB media is then inserted in Bank 1. The rebuild copies the data from the
Bank 0 20GB drive to the new drive in Bank 1. The I35MB remains a 20GB
mirrored device.
Bank 0 media is replaced with a 60GB unit. The rebuild copies the operational
20GB from Bank 1. The I35MB now has a 40GB media in the Bank 1 and a
60GB drive in Bank 0. The I35MB remains a 20GB mirrored device.
Contact Adtron Technical support for more information regarding using
different size media.
Aborting a button press
If the bank button is pressed for longer than 20 seconds, no operation is performed.
This is provided as an opportunity to abort a button press.

Note
Description
110
This value does not conform to the ATTRIBUTE value/threshold model. The value literally
indicates the number of members in each mirror set.
112
The reset-to-ready attribute reports elapsed time from start of hard reset to the end of hard or
soft reset. If a soft reset is received, the value could be quite large and misleading.
This attribute only available in mirrored units.
1st, 2nd, 3rd refer to mirror banks. For RAID-0, only Bank 1 exists; for RAID-1, Banks 0 and 1
exist; more banks are defined for future expansion, but not currently implemented.
Adtron temperature can report negative values, and other manufacturers cannot. The
attribute value is degrees C, and the first byte of the raw data field is fractional degrees C. For
example, value = 0x20 and raw [0] = 0x80 means 0x20.80 (hexadecimal), or 32.5 decimal.
The DMA error counter is reset to zero with any hard reset.
