Managing Changes to Shared Storage Components Replacing a Failed Disk At some point, you might need to replace a failed drive in an RA4000 Array or RA4100 Array. It is assumed you are employing RAID levels 0, 1, 0+1, 4, or 5 for all devices in the storage array. IMPORTANT: If the failed drive is not part of a fault-tolerant drive array you can lose some or all of the data on the failed drive. With RAID employed, the effects of replacing a drive are felt only by the storage subsystem. The operating system and Oracle are unaware of the activity.
