Synchronizing an Array
Synchronization is a periodic maintenance procedure for Mirroring (RAID 1) arrays to maintain data
consistency on all mirrored drives. In operation, array synchronization compares data on the mirrored
drives for any differences. If there are differences detected, data from the primary drive(s) is
automatically copied to the secondary drive(s). This assures that all mirrored drives will contain the
exact information.
