Is it possible to modify the frequency of the automated RAID scrubbing in Red Hat Enterprise Linux?

Solution Verified - Updated -

Issue

  • Red Hat Enterprise Linux performs an automatic check (scrubbing) of RAID arrays once a week. Is it possible to modify the frequency of this check?
  • Component disks of a RAID array are very big compared to their speed. As a result scrubbing is very slow and takes too long. Is it possible to reduce how frequently it runs?

Environment

  • Red Hat Enterprise Linux 8
  • md (software) RAID arrays
