Patrol Read Patrol read reviews your system for possible drive errors that could lead to drive failure and then action to correct errors. The goal is to protect data integrity by detecting drive failure before the failure can damage data. The corrective actions depend upon the drive group configuration and the type of errors. Patrol read starts only when the controller is idle for a defined period of time and no other background tasks are active. It can continue to run during heavy I/O processes. You can use the Nytro MegaRAID Command Tool interface or the Nytro MegaRAID Storage Manager software to choose the patrol read options, which you can use to set the Automatic or Manual operation, or disable the Patrol read option.
