## 6020-VolVerify Test Options

The `6020-VolVerify` test enables administrators to execute manual parity checks on existing array volumes. Parity checking applies only to RAID-1 and RAID-5 volumes. Check data parity using the 6120volverify test before performing tape backup overwrite cycles, approximately once every 30 days.

Note -

Ensure that the system health is optimal before running `6120-VolVerify`. For example, make sure that no LUNs are under reconstruction, the status of all disks is 0, and any actionable events are resolved.

Note -

This test requires you to enter the default array password. For information about defining the default array password, see Setting Configuration Options.

Option | Description
--- | ---
Agent | Host agent name.
Device Key | The key for the array to be testes.
Device Name | The assigned name of the array to be tested.
Product | The product name for the array to be tested.
Address | The IP address of the array to be tested.
Volume Name | The name of the volume to be verified. The volume name is a name internal to the array and is not seen by the host.
Fix_Errors | An option that corrects parity errors on RAID-5 volumes and corrects mirrored data errors on RAID-1 volumes. If Fix_Errors is not specified, the `6120-VolVerify` test will report errors but not correct them. If the Fix_Errors option is specified and an error is detected, the `6120-VolVerify` test will regenerate parity from the existing data on the volume.
Rate | The speed at which the `6120-VolVerify` test is to run. The execution rate is any number from 1 to 16. The default rate is 1, which has the minimum performance impact on the data host.
User | The name of the user currently logged required to initiate the test on the array.
Password | The default array password for the system, if one is configured.
Number of Passes | The number of iterations of the test to be run on the array.
Verbose Mode | Whether the test results are detailed (verbose) or not.
Send Results to Email | The email address to which test results are to be sent.
