Gray Menu Options

Gray menu options are not available to you, usually because they do

not apply to the chosen array. If an array has no failed drives, for

example, the Reconstruct Functions option on the Main menu is

gray, because no drives need to be reconstructed. Similarly, the

Convert RAID Level option is always gray for a mirrored array,

because you cannot convert a mirrored array to another format.

You cannot select a gray menu option. If you try to select it, the util-

ity displays a message explaining why you cannot.

Getting Help

You can display Help windows for most menus by pressing the

key. As you highlight menu options, the Help windows automati-

cally change to provide information about the highlighted option.

To clear the Help windows, press the

key again.
