container Commands container restore RAID5 To restore a RAID 5 array, use the container restore RAID5 command. Typically, you use this command to restore a RAID 5 array that contains one or more dead partitions. This command does not always succeed; therefore, use it only if all other measures fail. One situation where the command might prove useful is for those situations where you may have inadvertently pulled a drive and then almost immediately put it back. The act of pulling the drive may cause some dead partitions to appear. You can then restore the RAID 5 array using this command. Syntax container restore RAID5 {container} Parameters {container} Specifies the ID number (0 to 63) of the array (a RAID 5 array) to restore. Examples Before restoring a RAID 5 array, use the container list command to display information about the RAID 5 array. If a partition is dead, the ":" (colon) in the Partition Offset:Size column changes to a "!" (exclamation point).

container Commands
container restore RAID5
To restore a RAID 5 array, use the
container restore RAID5
command. Typically, you use this command to restore a RAID 5
array that contains one or more dead partitions. This command
does not always succeed; therefore, use it only if all other measures
fail.
One situation where the command might prove useful is for those
situations where you may have inadvertently pulled a drive and
then almost immediately put it back. The act of pulling the drive
may cause some dead partitions to appear. You can then restore the
RAID 5 array using this command.
Syntax
container restore RAID5 {container}
Parameters
{container}
Specifies the ID number (0 to 63) of the array (a RAID 5 array)
to restore.
Examples
Before restoring a RAID 5 array, use the
container list
command to display information about the RAID 5 array. If a
partition is dead, the “:” (colon) in the
Partition Offset:Size
column changes to a “!” (exclamation point).
