Deleteing Unassigned Global Hot Spares
When a RAID set is deleted and an unassigned global hot spare is still displayed in
the Devices screen, click the ‘none’ link next to the unassigned global hot spare.
Follow the on-screen instructions to delete the hot spare.
The Enclosure Summary Screen
If the system consists of a Snap Server 4500, 15000, or 18000 and one or more
expansion arrays, an enclosure summary screen displays, with links to the Disk
Drive Detail screen for each enclosure.
Identifying Enclosures
Disk drives internal to a Snap Server and those belonging to attached expansion
enclosures are distinguished as follows:
On a Snap Server 4500, any attached Snap Disk 10 expansion array disk drives
are distinguished from those of the host server by the label EXTN1 (if attached to
Port 1 of the host server’s Serial ATA card) and EXTN2 (if connected to Port 2).
On a Snap Server 15000 or 18000, the disk drives of the Snap Disk 30SA that is
directly attached to the Snap Server is distinguished from those of the host server
by the label EXTN1. Additional attached expansion arrays are labeled
sequentially EXTN2, EXTN3) according to their position in the daisy chain.
