The Automatic Rebuild box can only be activated while a RAID is offline.
For that reason, the RAID needs to be stopped (if no activity is currently performed on it), by
clicking on the “Stop RAID” button.
Once stopped, the Automatic Rebuild tick box, previously grayed out, becomes active.
In order to activate it, tick the box corresponding to the Automatic Rebuild field, but do not
directly click on the “Start RAID” button. This would cause the feature to be reset to the state it
was in before stopping the RAID and would cause the RAID to restart without the feature being
activated. Instead, once the box is ticked or unticked, click on the “OK” button to validate and
save this option onto the RAID. Once done, the Raid – Edit view form should close and you will
need to reopen it, and click on “Start RAID” to restart the RAID. You should observe that the
Automatic Rebuild tick box displays your setting and will get grayed out once the RAID has
restarted.
Automatic Rebuild Behavior
With the Automatic Rebuild feature enabled, and your disk pool containing at least one spare
disk of the similar specifications (similar size), pulling an active RAID disk from its bay will
automatically start rebuilding the array in which the disk is contained, even if the RAID is being
used at the same time, in total transparency. In the picture below, one of the RAID disk was
pulled, which kicked in the RAID rebuild process automatically:
