Managing hot spares
You may congure one disk as a global hot spare to protect critical data on the
RAID 1/1E/10 volume(s). You may create the hot spare disk at the same time you
create the RAID 1/1E/10 volume. Refer to this section when adding a hot spare
disk on an existing volume.
If a disk on an RAID 1/1E/10 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.
To create a hot spare
1. Follow steps 1–3 of the section Viewing volume properties.
2. From the View Volume screen, select Manage Volume, then press <Enter>.
3. From the Manage Volume screen, select Manage Hot Spares, then press
<Enter>.
