Creating an Alternate System Disk
Creating an Alternate System Disk
Reasons to create an alternate system disk include:
•
Minimizing unplanned outage minutes by having an alternate system disk
configured as a backup.
•
Avoiding planned outages by configuring an alternate system disk to use in case
you must stop your current system disk.
•
Keeping your system running with the alternate system disk while the main system
disk is offline.
For more information, see the DSM/SCM User’s Guide.
