5-50 Chapter 5: RAID conguration
Managing hot spares
You may congure one disk as a global hot spare to protect critical data on the IM/
IME volume(s). You may create the hot spare disk at the same time you create the
IM/IME volume. Refer to this section when adding a hot spare disk on an existing
volume.
If a disk on an IM/IME volume fails, the utility automatically rebuilds the failed
disk data on the hot spare. When the failed disk is replaced, the utility assigns
the replacement as the new hot spare.
