Replacing a Volume
If you are working in
a V-Switch cluster,
the volume must be
replaced on both V-
Switches.
You can replace a volume with another volume. Use the CLI command
volume replace after a disk failure to replace a volume used in a
storage hierarchy with a volume on a functional disk. This is only a
‘physical’ replacement. The data on the failed disk is not copied to the
new volume.
If you are replacing a volume used as part of a mirrored volume, continue
with the CLI command volume mirror synch to synchronize the
replacement volume with the other mirrored volume(s). See
“Synchronizing a Volume,” page 166.
