Disk Management
Displays the name, capacity, status, and type of each disk connected to the StorCenter Pro
server.
NOTE: Some status conditions and RAID options are available only on StorCenter Pro server
that have more than one internal disk.
Volume Name—Change the volume name.
Capacity—Displays the total capacity (used and unused) of the volume.
Space Available—Displays the amount of disk space available.
Status—Displays the status of the volume. The possible status conditions are Online,
Online [Rebuilding...], Online [Degraded], and Offline.
Online indicates that your volume is healthy.
Online [Rebuilding...] should occur when you are creating a new mirrored array. The
Online [Rebuilding...] status message will list the % completed and the time remaining
in the rebuild process.
Online [Degraded] will appear only when a single drive in a mirrored array has failed.
Offline will appear when a volume has failed.
Type—Displays the current array type used by the internal disks—Spanning (JBOD), Striping
(RAID 0), and Mirroring (RAID 1). (RAID options are available only on StorCenter Pro servers
with more than one internal disk.)
Repair—Verify and repair the StorCenter Pro server's directory (similar to Scan Disk). This
tool will not repair USB Mass Storage Devices connected to the StorCenter Pro server. The
Repair link is only available for the internal drives.
Format—Formats the StorCenter Pro server and erase all its contents. A StorCenter Pro
server with more than one internal disk can only format them using methods that produce a
single logical volume (array). The format tool works on internal StorCenter Pro disks ONLY, it
will not format external USB devices.
Arrays are devices that combine multiple physical disks into a single logical volume. RAID,
or Redundant Array of Inexpensive (or Independent) Disks, is a method of combining
multiple disks for data redundancy in case of a disk failure. This section describes each of
the different types of arrays supported by Iomega StorCenter Pro server with two internal
disks.
Spanned (JBOD)—Similar to RAID 0 in the sense that multiple hard disks are
combined to make one large volume. Data is not written in parallel to multiple disks.
Data is written to a single disk until it is full and then written to the next disk in the
set. Spanning does not provide any data redundancy. Spanning requires two or more
hard disks.
Striped (RAID 0)—RAID 0 uses a technique called data striping. Multiple hard disks
are combined to make one large volume. RAID 0 can read and write faster than a
simple configuration, since it splits the data and accesses all disks in parallel. RAID 0
does not provide any data redundancy. RAID 0 requires two or more hard disks.
RAID 0+1—RAID 0+1 Creates a mirror (RAID 1) out of two Striped (RAID 0) volumes.
RAID 0+1 provides the same benefits as RAID 1, but allows you to use more than two
drives (must be an even number). The RAID capacity is half of the physical drives.
RAID 5—RAID 5 provides the best balance of data redundancy and disk capacity. Like
RAID 0, RAID 5 stripes all of the available disks into one large volume; however, the
space equivalent to one hard drive will be used to store parity data. If a hard drive
fails, the Iomega StorCenter Pro server will rebuild your files using the parity data.
RAID 5 requires at least 3 hard drives.
CAUTION! Some RAID configurations add a level of redundancy for your data; however,
RAID should not be your only means of backup.
Safe Removal—Click the Safe Removal link next to the USB drive you wish to remove
before disconnecting the drive.
Enable USB Storage Devices—Check this option if you wish automatically share USB storage
devices. USB devices will appear in the USBStorage share.

LAN
Network Mode—Select the method the StorCenter Pro server will use to obtain an IP
address—DHCP Client or Static.
DHCP Client—Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol. The StorCenter Pro server will obtain
its LAN IP settings from the DHCP server on the local network. By default, the StorCenter Pro
server is configured to use DHCP.
IP Address—Displays the StorCenter Pro server's IP address. If no DHCP server is found the
StorCenter Pro server will automatically default to an IP address in the 169.254.x.x range.
Subnet Mask—Displays the StorCenter Pro server's subnet mask. If no DHCP server is found
the StorCenter Pro server will automatically default to a subnet mask of 255.255.0.0.
Static—If your network does not have a DHCP server, you must set a static IP address for
your StorCenter Pro server to function properly
IP Address—Enter an IP address for your StorCenter Pro server. The IP address of each
device in the local area network must be within the same IP address range and subnet mask.
For a small subnet with less than 253 IP addresses assigned (e.g. Class C private IP), each
device in the LAN (Local Area Network) needs to have a unique IP Address in the format of
169.254.x.x to connect to other devices within the same network.
Subnet Mask—Specify the subnet mask for the StorCenter Pro server. The Subnet mask
must be the same for all devices on the same subnet of the network. The default subnet
setting is 255.255.0.0. Keep this default setting if your LAN has an IP address range in the
format of 169.254.x.x.
Gateway—If your network has a router or gateway, enter its address here.
Domain Name—Internet Search Domain. Enter the internet search domain for your ISP
account. This is usually in the form of mycompany.com.
DNS Server—Domain Name System. DNS translates IP addresses into more easily
understandable names such as MyComputer.MyCompany.com . Enter the IP address of one
or more DNS servers.
Enable Jumbo Frame Support—Allows the StorCenter Pro server to send over-sized data
packets. This allows the device to send more data per packet which increases the speed and
efficiency of the network connection and reduces processor utilization.

Filenaming Conventions
When sharing files on a network, you must choose filenames that are compatible with all
devices that will use the file. The StorCenter Network Hard Drive shares files using the SMB
(Server Message Block) protocol and stores its files on a FAT32 hard drive. You will need to
use characters supported by these filesystems to successfully share your files. Any filename
supported by a Windows PC should work with most platforms.
Invalid filenames:
Any filename containing the characters: " / \ < > ? : * |

Any filename that contains extended characters such as Á, À, Ã, Ä, etc. (characters
typed with the the Ctrl key on the Mac).
Any filename that ends with a space or period.
Any filename that begins with a period.
some filenames such as comX, lptX, con, nul, prn, etc. maybe reserved for use by the
operating system of your client computer (where X represents a number).
Although filenames may be up to 256 characters long, the file path is limited to 260
characters in some operating systems. For best results, use short filenames.
Failure to comply with naming guidelines may result in the following error messages:
File name too long

Cannot copy file
Cannot read from source file or disk
Error message -43

Using the Iomega® StorCenter™ Pro Server

Protecting Your Data

Follow these guidelines to protect your data against potential disasters:
During Normal Operation

Always:
Back up your Iomega StorCenter Pro
As with any computer hardware or peripheral, it is highly recommended

that you back up your StorCenter Pro. A backup can be performed either
directly to a backup device or to another server over a TCP/IP network.
Use an Uninterruptible Power Supply (UPS)
To protect your StorCenter Pro device against power loss and/or power
surges, an external UPS device is recommended.
Have a spare StorCenter Pro hot-swappable hard drive available
Some RAID configurations allow a single hard drive to be replaced while

in normal operation. As a result, Iomega recommends that you have a
spare hard drive available in the event of a hard drive failure. This will
permit a faster return to normal performance speeds.
Enable email alert notifications
The StorCenter Pro has been designed with an email alert notification
system. During initial device setup, specify the administrator's email
address and an appropriate SMTP server.
| top of page |
In the Event of a Hard Drive Failure

Always:
Verify the failed hard drive number
Before removing a hard drive, verify the location of the failed drive by
checking email notifications, administration UI alerts and logs. If an
additional functioning drive (other than the failed drive) is removed, data
loss will result!
Never:
Remove more than one hard drive at a time
The StorCenter Pro can continue operating after a single drive failure. Do
NOT remove any other drives while there is a failed drive in the system or
while the replacement drive is being restored.
Insert a spare hot-swappable hard drive until the StorCenter Pro

operating system shows the missing drive
When a hard drive is removed, the system may take a few minutes to
recognize the removal. Do NOT insert a replacement drive until the
Iomega StorCenter Pro has recognized the drive removal. The Iomega
StorCenter Pro will notify you of a hard drive removal through a
notification email or the graphical user interface (GUI).
Interrupt the system rebuild process
After inserting the replacement drive, you MUST allow the RAID volume to
restore. An active restoration is indicated by either a flashing status LED
in conjunction with continuous hard drive activity, or by continuous
independent hard drive activity. During this process, do NOT remove any
of the hard drives or power down the StorCenter Pro. This process may
take many hours depending on the capacity of the RAID volume and
amount of data that is being restored.

StorCenter Pro Drives and Arrays
What is an Array? What is RAID 5?

What is JBOD? Changing the Default Array Type
What is RAID 0? Replacing a Hard Drive in the Iomega
What is RAID 0+1? StorCenter Pro
Why Can't I Rebuild the array in my
Iomega StorCenter Pro?
The Iomega StorCenter Pro comes preconfigured with a RAID 5 array. Your Iomega
StorCenter Pro has hot-swappable hard drives for increased data accessibility and ease of
maintenance. To enhance your experience with your Iomega StorCenter Pro, it is very
important to become familiar with the basics of array and drive handling.
What is an Array?
Arrays are devices that combine multiple physical disks into a single logical volume. RAID,
or Redundant Array of Inexpensive (or Independent) Disks, is a method of combining
multiple disks for data redundancy in case of a disk failure. This section describes each of
the different types of arrays supported by your Iomega StorCenter Pro Server.
CAUTION! Some RAID configurations add a level of redundancy for your data; however,
RAID should not be your only means of backup.
| top of page |
What is a Spanned Volume?
JBOD, also known as spanning, is similar to RAID 0 in the sense that multiple hard drives are
combined to make one large volume. Data is not written in parallel to multiple disks. Data is
written to a single disk until it is full and then written to the next disk in the set. Spanning
does not provide any data redundancy. Spanning requires two or more hard drives.
| top of page |
What is RAID 0?
RAID 0 uses a technique called data striping. Multiple hard drives are combined to make one
large volume. RAID 0 can read and write faster than a simple configuration, since it splits
the data and accesses all disks in parallel. RAID 0 does not provide any data redundancy.
RAID 0 requires two or more hard drives.
| top of page |
What is RAID 0+1?

RAID 0+1 Creates a mirror (RAID 1) out of two Striped (RAID 0) volumes. RAID 0+1 provides
the same benefits as RAID 1, but allows you to use more than two drives (must be an even
number). The RAID capacity is half of the physical drives.
| top of page |
What is RAID 5?
RAID 5 provides the best balance of data redundancy and disk capacity. Like RAID 0, RAID 5
stripes all of the available disks into one large volume; however, the space equivalent to one
hard drive will be used to store parity data. If a hard drive fails, the Iomega StorCenter will
rebuild your files using the parity data. RAID 5 requires at least 3 hard drives.
| top of page |
Changing the Default Array Type
You can reconfigure your StorCenter Pro to use a different array type. The StorCenter Pro
Server can use JBOD, RAID 0, RAID 0+1, or RAID 5 arrays. By default the StorCenter Pro
server is set to RAID 5. It is very easy to change the array type of your device.
1. Back up your data! Changing the StorCenter Pro array type will erase all information
stored on your StorCenter Pro server.
2. Launch Iomega Discovery Tool Pro Software.
3. Select the StorCenter Pro server you wish to manage.
4. Click the Manage button.
5. Log into Device Services.
6. Click on the Disk Management link in the left-hand column.
7. Click the Format link next to your array.
8. Select the new array type.
9. Click OK.
10. When prompted if you want to proceed, click OK.
NOTE: Your StorCenter Pro may take several hours to build the new array. Do NOT
power down the StorCenter Pro server during the rebuild process. You can use the
device during the rebuild process; however, performance will be degraded.
| top of page |
Replacing a Hard Drive in the Iomega StorCenter Pro
Your Iomega StorCenter Pro has been configured so that you can lose any single drive and
the system will remain operational. However, your data may be lost if you are not using an
array type that provides redundancy.
To replace a StorCenter Pro hard drive, simply remove the failed drive from the system and
wait for the system to indicate a successful removal. Insert the replacement drive and wait
for the system to rebuild any RAID volumes that were configured on the original drive. It is
very important that the system is NOT shutdown and that no other drives are removed until
this restoration is complete. Failure to follow these steps could result in system failure
and loss of data!
NOTE: For best results, Iomega recommends that you limit data transfers to/from your
StorCenter while the array is rebuilding. Simple, JBOD, and RAID 0 volumes do not provide
data redundancy. Your data will not be restored if you are using these RAID types. RAID 1,
0+1, 10, and 5 provide data redundancy and will restore your data as part of the rebuild
process.
To Replace a Hard Drive:
Follow these instructions to replace any single hard drive in your Iomega StorCenter Pro.
CAUTION! Never replace more than one hard drive at a time.
CAUTION! Always replace hard drives while the Iomega StorCenter Pro is running. Do NOT
power down the Iomega StorCenter Pro during this operation. This operation may take
several hours.
1. Determine which drive has failed. Check the System Log if you are unsure.
2. Press the drive sled release latch.
3. Pull the lever to eject the drive. Ejecting the drive automatically unplugs the power
and data connectors.
4. Slide the drive completely out of the bay.
5. Wait a couple of minutes while the Iomega StorCenter Pro recognizes that the drive
has been removed.
6. Slide the replacement drive into the open bay.
CAUTION! Use Iomega replacement drives only! Failure to do so will void your
warranty.
7. After inserting a new drive, the Iomega StorCenter Pro performance will be degraded
until the RAID has been rebuilt. The RAID may take several hours to rebuild your data.
| top of page |
Why Can't I Rebuild the Array in my Iomega StorCenter Pro?

Rebuilding an array may fail for the following reasons:
The hard drive being used for the rebuild is damaged. Try using another hard drive.
CAUTION! Use Iomega replacement drives only! Failure to do so will void your
warranty.
More than one drive is damaged. Contact Iomega for repairs.

Backing Up With the StorCenter ™ Pro

What Should I Back Up?
How Should I Back Up?
Where Should I Keep My Backups?
Backing Up a Client Computer
Backing Up the StorCenter Pro
What Should I Back Up?
Data files and folders change the most, and therefore should be backed up every day. Make
sure you back up the directories where you save your important data.
| top of page |
How Should I Back Up?

Create data backups on a regular basis depending on how often your data changes. This
can be done using the scheduling feature of the included software. For example, a business
open on weekdays should back up data files at the end of each weekday—if a virus wipes
out data on a Wednesday, you can restore Tuesday’s backup and lose no more than a day’s
work.
| top of page |
Where Should I Keep My Backups?

You should back up the important files from your client computers to the StorCenter Pro.
The StorCenter Pro RAID has a level of redundancy for your data; however, the RAID should
not be your only means of backup. As with any computer hardware or peripheral, it is highly
recommended that you back up your StorCenter Pro device. A backup can be performed
either directly to a backup device, such as a REV Loader, or to another server over a TCP/IP
network.
Iomega recommends you store at least one backup copy of your StorCenter Pro in a safe,
off-site location. If your backup is stored on cartridges that are stacked next to your
StorCenter Pro, a fire or other disaster could destroy both the StorCenter Pro and the
backup.
| top of page |

drives
You will receive USB storage device disconnections when ever you repair or reformat the
