Create a Hot-spare Drive Unused physical hard drives may be designated as hot-spare drives. A hot-spare drive automatically replaces a physical hard drive in a storage pool when it fails, or a when the Predictive Failure Analysis (PFA) indicates a physical drive will fail. The modular server system supports both dedicated and global hot-spare drives. A dedicated hot-spare drive is assigned to a specific storage pool. If a physical drive fails in the assigned storage pool, the dedicated hot-spare drive will replace the failed drive as long as the hot-spare drive is equal to or greater than the size of the failed drive. A global hot spare can replace any failed drive in any storage pool as long as the global hot-spare drive size is equal to or greater than the failed drive size. Both dedicated and global hotspare drives will revert to being a hot-spare drive once the failed physical drive is replaced. Once a hot spare is created, the following information is updated: • The information icon for the physical drive changes to the hot spare icon, . • The Role description on the General Tab for the selected physical drive indicates whether the physical drive is a dedicated or global spare . • If the drive is a dedicated hot-spare drive, it will be listed on the Spares tab for the assigned Storage Pool. • If the drive is a global hot-spare drive, it will be listed on the Spares tab under all Storage Pools. To create a hot-spare drive, follow these steps: 1. Click Storage in the top menu or click System > Storage in the left navigation panel to open the Storage screen. 2. Select an available or unused physical hard drive from the system graphic. This is a drive that is currently not used in a storage pool. 3. From the "Drive " Action menu, select Make Hot Spare. 4. Configure the hot spare as either a global hot spare (available to all storage pools) or a dedicated hot-spare drive (assigned to a specific storage pool) and click Apply. Once the hot spare has been created, a successful action dialog will be displayed and the information icon will change to the hot spare icon, . 90 Intel® Modular Server System User Guide

Modular Server System User Guide

Create a Hot-spare Drive

Unused physical hard drives may be designated as hot-spare drives. A hot-spare drive

automatically replaces a physical hard drive in a storage pool when it fails, or a when the

Predictive Failure Analysis (PFA) indicates a physical drive will fail.

The modular server system supports both dedicated and global hot-spare drives. A

dedicated hot-spare drive is assigned to a specific storage pool. If a physical drive fails in

the assigned storage pool, the dedicated hot-spare drive will replace the failed drive as

long as the hot-spare drive is equal to or greater than the size of the failed drive. A global

hot spare can replace any failed drive in any storage pool as long as the global hot-spare

drive size is equal to or greater than the failed drive size. Both dedicated and global hot-

spare drives will revert to being a hot-spare drive once the failed physical drive is

replaced.

Once a hot spare is created, the following information is updated:

•

The information icon for the physical drive changes to the hot spare icon,

•

The Role description on the General Tab for the selected physical drive indicates

whether the physical drive is a dedicated or global spare .

•

If the drive is a dedicated hot-spare drive, it will be listed on the Spares tab for the

assigned Storage Pool.

•

If the drive is a global hot-spare drive, it will be listed on the Spares tab under all

Storage Pools.

To create a hot-spare drive, follow these steps:

Click Storage in the top menu or click System > Storage in the left navigation panel to

open the Storage screen.

Select an available or unused physical hard drive from the system graphic.

This is a drive that is currently not used in a storage pool.

From the “Drive <#>” Action menu, select Make Hot Spare.

Configure the hot spare as either a global hot spare (available to all storage pools) or a

dedicated hot-spare drive (assigned to a specific storage pool) and click Apply.

Once the hot spare has been created, a successful action dialog will be displayed and

the information icon will change to the hot spare icon,
