Right-click the enclosure management device icon to view the status and properties of the enclosure's devices, such as its disk drives and fans. Disk drives designated as hot spares have plus signs (+) beside them: • A blue plus sign (shown at right) means that the spare is protecting at least one pool. • A hot spare with a yellow plus sign (shown at right) may not be large enough to protect the pool it's assigned to, or may not be assigned to a pool. With tool tips enabled (see page 135), hold your cursor over any disk drive to see its status, port number, and maximum speed. You can also click the arrow, shown at right, to see this same information for all the disk drives at the same time.
