- For replacement of a HDD or SSD included in a DU
Confirm whether [Status] of replaced HDD or SSD has been already ‘Operational’ by [System] –
[DU] – [DUx] window of MMB Web-UI. For details on [SBx] window, see ‘1.2.15 [DU] menu’ in
“PRIMEQUEST 2000 series Tool Reference” (C122-E177EN).
- If set a spare disk:
A rebuild has been already automatically performed to the HDD or SSD set as a spare disk. The
replaced HDD or SSD automatically becomes a spare disk. The Alarm LED of the HDD or SSD goes
out.
Confirm whether [Status] of replaced HDD or SSD has been already ‘Hot spare’ by MMB Web-UI. How
to confirm the status differs depending on whether the HDD or SSD is included in a SB or in a DU.
- For replacement of a HDD or SSD included in a SB
Confirm whether [Status] of replaced HDD or SSD has been already ‘Hot Spare’ by [System] – [SB]
– [SBx] window of MMB Web-UI. For details on [SBx] window, see ‘1.2.13 [SB] menu’ in
“PRIMEQUEST 2000 series Tool Reference” (C122-E177EN).
- For replacement of a HDD or SSD included in a DU
Confirm whether [Status] of replaced HDD or SSD has been already ‘Hot Spare’ by [System] –
[DU] – [DUx] window of MMB Web-UI. For details on [SBx] window, see ‘1.2.15 [DU] menu’ in
“PRIMEQUEST 2000 series Tool Reference” (C122-E177EN).
5.2 Preventive replacement of HDD/SSD with Hardware RAID
configuration
This section describes how to perform the preventive replacement of Hard Disk Drives (HDD) or Solid State
Drives (SSD) with Hardware RAID configuration.
5.2.1 Preventive replacement of failed HDD/SSD with RAID0
configuration
This section describes the workflow of preventive replacement of HDD or SSD with RAID0 configuration.
For mirror configuration
Hot preventive replacement can be performed if HDDs or SSDs are mirror configuration by software such as
PRIMECLUSTER GDS.
Remarks
- Step1 and Step2 are performed by field engineers in charge of your system.
- If HDD or SSD other than target HDD or SSD for preventive replacement fails in step3, field engineers in
charge of your system replace the failed HDD or SSD.
1. Replace HDD or SSD with the Alarm LED on by using MMB Maintenance Wizard.
2. Create a logical drive with RAID0 configuration by using MMB Maintenance Wizard.
3. Confirm whether [Status] of replaced HDD or SSD has been already ‘Operational’ by MMB Web-UI. How
to confirm the status differs depending on whether the HDD or SSD is included in a SB or in a DU.
- For replacement of a HDD or SSD included in a SB
Confirm whether [Status] of replaced HDD or SSD has been already ‘Operational’ by [System] – [SB] –
[SBx] window of MMB Web-UI. For details on [SBx] window, see ‘1.2.13 [SB] menu’ in “PRIMEQUEST
2000 series Tool Reference” (C122-E177EN).
- For replacement of a HDD or SSD included in a DU
Confirm whether [Status] of replaced HDD or SSD has been already ‘Operational’ by [System] – [DU]
– [DUx] window of MMB Web-UI. For details on [SBx] window, see ‘1.2.15 [DU] menu’ in
“PRIMEQUEST 2000 series Tool Reference” (C122-E177EN).
For non-mirror configuration (replacement with the partition power off)
If HDDs or SSDs are not mirror configuration, preventive replacement of a HDD or SSD has to be performed
with the partition power off
