I'm trying to diagnose a disk size error under serverRAID. I notice one of the disks in a Raid 5 array is set to write back. The others are set to write through. Is this likely my problem?
I dont seem to be able to change the setting using the serverRaid tools. Is that a configurable setting usually? If it is what is the procedure to change it?

The hardware involved is a serverRAID-3L card in a Netfinity 3500 machine. The serverRAid version is 7.10.18. The disks are IBM 9.1GB ultrawide SCSI2
thanks
 
DOnt know if this is normal or not without loking at my own servers at work. Can check on tesday. I would think though that the setting would be under ctrl+I or cnrt+a when you boot the server.
