Replaced a failed hard drive in a RAID 5 config. Performed the
Reconstruct function which ran with no failures and the array showed
all 5 drives back online and in optimal state again, but forgot to perform
the "Consistency Check" afterwards. It has been a week now and I'm
just wondering if it was ok to run the Consistency Check anytime
without any adverse effects? And should I just run the check first, or the
check with repair option? My AIX support line is hourly for this machine
so I don't want to use that option.
Thanks!
