Record the drive bay location of the failed physical drive. This is the location is where the new physical drive must be inserted. 5. If the failed drive is hot-pluggable, skip to step 6. Otherwise, schedule server down time, bring down the server, and power off the unit. 6. Insert the replacement physical drive in the same drive bay where the failed drive was located. The physical drive must be the same capacity as the failed drive. Be sure that all cable connections are securely in place. For replacements in a ProLiant server or storage system, after you secure the drive in the bay, the LEDs on the drive will all light once in an alternating pattern to indicate that the connection was successful. The Online LED will turn green, indicating that the controller has recognized and successfully initialized the replacement drive. If the Online LED does not light after a few minutes, verify that you added the new drive in the same slot as the failed drive and that the drive capacity is the same as the failed drive it is replacing. 7. Activate the replaced device. Use MONITOR.NLM Disk Information option to select the device. Some versions of NetWare/intraNetWare will cause a "device activate" to occur automatically when this option is chosen. Other versions of NetWare/intraNetWare require manual activation of the device by changing the operating status to active.

3.
Delete the unavailable (possibly out of sync) device from the Mirror
Partition group. This device is unavailable due to the drive failure.
4.
Record the drive bay location of the failed physical drive. This is the
location is where the new physical drive must be inserted.
5.
If the failed drive is hot-pluggable, skip to step 6. Otherwise, schedule
server down time, bring down the server, and power off the unit.
6.
Insert the replacement physical drive in the same drive bay where the
failed drive was located. The physical drive must be the same capacity as
the failed drive. Be sure that all cable connections are securely in place.
For replacements in a ProLiant server or storage system, after you
secure the drive in the bay, the LEDs on the drive will all light once in
an alternating pattern to indicate that the connection was successful. The
Online LED will turn green, indicating that the controller has
recognized and successfully initialized the replacement drive. If the
Online LED does not light after a few minutes, verify that you added the
new drive in the same slot as the failed drive and that the drive capacity
is the same as the failed drive it is replacing.
7.
Activate the replaced device. Use
MONITOR.NLM
Disk Information
option to select the device. Some versions of NetWare/intraNetWare
will cause a “device activate” to occur automatically when this option
is chosen. Other versions of NetWare/intraNetWare require manual
activation of the device by changing the operating status to active. A
console alert will be sent by the driver if attempts to reactivate the
failed logical drive are successful.
8.
Use the
INSTALL.NLM
option Change Hot Fix (look at the information
provided about the mirrored drive
, not the failed drive) to determine
the number of Hot Fix Redirection blocks set up for this partition. See
the section “Using CPQDAOPT on Existing NetWare/intraNetWare
Servers” in this chapter for more information about optimizing the
performance.
9.
Use the
INSTALL.NLM
to delete and recreate the partition on the
repaired logical drive.
