Virtual Disk Task - Replace Member Disk Step 1 of 2

NOTE: This feature is supported with firmware versions 6.1 and later.

Does my controller support this feature? See Supported features.

You can copy data from a physical disk, which is a member of a virtual disk, to another physical disk by providing a Replace Member Configuration option. You can initiate multiple copies of data from different array groups.

The source physical disk should be part of a virtual disk and in the Online state. Also, the virtual disk should not be fully degraded.

NOTE: You must enable the Revertible Hot Spare option to replace a member disk. Changing the Revertible Hot Spare option is not supported on PERC 12 controllers.

The destination physical disk should be in the Ready state, available to be written to, and of the appropriate size and type.

NOTE: The destination physical disk can also be an available hot spare.
