Replacing a Member Disk Step 1 of 2

Steps

  1. Select the physical disk in the Connector table that you want to replace.
  2. Select the destination disk in the Disks available for replace member operation table.
    CAUTION: If you choose a hot spare as the destination physical disk, your virtual disk does not have a hot spare, unless you assign one.
    NOTE: You can select only one source or destination physical disk at a time.
  3. Click Apply Changes.

    To exit without replacing the member disk, click Go Back To Virtual Disk Page.

    You can view the progress of the Replace Member Disk task on the Physical Disk Details page.

    NOTE: For PERC controllers, if any of the drives you selected is in the spun down state, the following message is displayed. The message displays the ID(s) of the spun down drive(s).
    The below listed physical drive(s) are in the spun down state. Executing this task on these drive(s) takes additional time, because the drive(s) need to spun up.
    NOTE: On PERC 12 controllers, when a physical disk is removed and inserted again while performing the Replace Member Disk task on a virtual disk, the STOR0211 alert message is not logged in the Alert Log page.
